VexTV introduces multisourced downloads to OpenNap
VexTV is one of the less known OpenNap clients. They have just released a version (0.50) with multisourcing capabilities, claiming it works also over different OpenNap networks. The client itself is very small (only 140 k) and uses web-style interface which is probably (haven't yet tried it myself) much less sophisticated than WinMX or audioGnome but some commentors seem to like it. Anyway, this is an interesting technological step and I wish that e.g. WinMX would also consider supporting multisourcing on OpenNap.

Thanks for the good tip.
If it works, it's stable and easily allows updating of the Opennap list it could lure me back to Opennap. With Morpheus down the whole thing is up for grabs now; hehe. |
The site is very scarce on details, but the reason no OpenNAP clients supports multisourcing is that the underlying protocol does not support it. Unlike Gnutella, OpenNAP has resisted proprietary/incompatible extensions so far, and I imagine that's exactly what these guys did; I bet you can only multicource from other same clients.
Not that it's a bad idea, just that it's not likely to succeed. |
