Since January 2001 I have used only WinMX, save for an ill-fated brief look at Morpheus last summer. Recently I've entertained thoughts of perhaps using Audiogalaxy or Grokster, just to see what they're like. I hope WinMX 3 is final soon, but isn't too much like Morpheus, which really yielded too little information on songs for me and was generally unreliable. One problem with WinMX, though, besides queues, is the fact that sometimes one can be listed as sharing 0 files when in fact they have sharing turned on and have dozens or more files shared. Back when I was sharing 800-900 files oftentimes I wold find myself listed as sharing no files on a server. The problem isn't as big today, but it can still get one banned from certain servers. Speaking of which, banning users with 0 files can be a pain, as everyone has to start somewhere, I would think. I basically had to start over in February, and was dismayed at the anti-leech measures which can grab others up in its effects.
