hmm, kazza is loaded with spyware and ad banners and popups, the p2p programs using DC dont have that crap, also half of those 2 million people on kazza arn't sharing any files, the servers for the DC programs make you share so much or you dont get on.

Thats why WinMX is better.

Kazaa = for movies and apps
WinMX = for mp3s

KaZaA Lite for everything.

Over 5,000 TeraBytes! :eek:

DC is better because you can find hubs that specialize in what you want. Not to mention you can browse any particular user's files.

I stick to kazaa unless I need something rare or hard to find. then its off to DC and Usenet.
