dont know if any of you have heard of or used this P2P program but it is very good in my opinion, alot faster than winmx also i think, and if you are willing 2 pay for the pro version you get turbo charged downloads, but in my opinion its fast enough as it is,

the search feature is good and gives lots of results,

take a look http://www.LimeWire.com

Looks good but it connects to the gnutella network and that bothers me. Although, I haven't heard of LimeWire being mentioned in any RIAA cases. I guess we will see.

Pretty easy for the RIAA, judging by this picture above. No effort involved to get their IP address. But I might be wrong, I'm just judging that on the picture. Is it like WinMX where you connect to a primary first :?

no there are no primaries or secondries, you just connect and then go as fast as your modem will let you, give it a go and you will be suprised, i use it from time 2 time, its good for rare files although you would not think it, and as i said if you are wiling 2 pay for the pro version you get turbo charged downloads!!
