Perhaps, if more people are forced to share (amongst their peers) - the more people will share (even if it IS begrudgingly) some decent files.

it's great if it works gr, if it leads to more downloads. if all it does is scold leeches it may be helpfull for ones' battered mental state - no small thing that - but i'd rather spend time on a program where i actually get stuff when i click "download".
how is it that winmx can display 100s - even 1000s of returns, and not download one single file, while something like soulseek can return just 2 or three hits (or hundreds) but successfully download every one?
i think it's a protocol/handshake issue. i have a hard time believing that winmx has a monopoly on leeches. afterall, they go where the files are just like you and me.
