I fall in the category of people who love the thing. :-)

WinMX is especially good for popular tracks, like, say, the top 40. You'll get a bunch of results, just hilight a couple of pages or whatever you want, and download all. Sure, some will be queued, some will download right away. Do 'enter remote que' on the queued ones, and in the next few minutes more downloads will start. Then cancel whatever is going too slow.

It's kind of a brute force approach, but has worked really well for me.

BTW, looks like the beta still has a long way to go, I've found some things don't work too well, some don't work at all (like auto-retry), and the whole thing is a little confusing.
