I dunno - I'm a crippled 56k user and services like Bearshare, etc., don't work well for me.

I'm not into movies as much as audio files and have no problem with morph. Winmx P2P works good but I often find myself in the "remotely queued" quicksand pit-of-no-return and have a bit better success using the OpenNap server list.

I have a wrapped Blubster and a new spyfree Audiogalaxy on my desktop waiting their turns. I liked Audiogalaxy only because I can find lots of oldhead tunes but when the spyware bloated - AG was kicked to the curb poste haste.

Different programs for different needs?

You're exactly right goldenrod. Programs like Edonkey and Direct Connect are great for programs while AG is excellent for music,especially rare stuff. Imesh is so fast with cable that by the time you finish watching 1 movie you've dl'ed another. Morpheus is good for music and movies but not great for programs.


btw this program is an enhanced AudioGalaxy without the spyware
