Reviews on the file sharing programs.. which programs to use after napster?
Napster / www.napster.com
Probably the best known file sharing program out there. Mainly cause of Napster being sued etc :-)
The free sharing will soon be over. So take advantage of it while it lasts. The filtering is really killing napster now
For a napster unban go here:
http://www.geocities.com/rwonl/NapsterUnban.html
Audiogalaxy / Satelite / www.audiogalaxy.com
Mp3s only
Its a free web based file sharing program
There are many users, and there is no way youll ever get a "transfer error"
It will probably be the best alternative to napster. Sometimes the starting of the download takes a little long
You can Resume your mp3s
Audiognome / www.audiognome.com
It's a program with a napster like lay out. So it will probably look familiair to most of u people 
.
You can connect to several servers and the possibility to find what you want is very big.
WinMX / www.winmx.com
It lets you simultaniously connect to different servers as to get more and better results
Can search for any file type
You can Resume
Limewire / www.limewire.com
People have different experiences with this software.. Most of the time its pretty good
No Resume function
can transfer almost everything: text files, programs, vids, mp3z...
Kazaa / www.kazaa.com
It has slow searching, the community is getting slightly better..
Can transfer almost everything
Filefunnel / www.filefunnel.com
It searches on many servers, therefore gets you more and better results
Gnutella / www.gnutella.com
Its been out for quite a while. It doesnt need a server to operate (unlike napster)
Bearshare / http://www.bearshare.com
Gnutella based program, it's ok
Imesh / http://www.Imesh.com
Naaah dont try it
Other less known programs
aimster / http://www.aimster.com/
spinfrenzy / just chickened out for the IRA not gonna have a file sharing function nmore
filetopia / http://www.filetopia.org/
Scour (exchange) / http://www.scour.com

Dont really have one.. i just stay on the ones which have a big librairy etc.. i also like to stay on the dutchnap servers just for the heck of it
Audiognome is pretty friggin sweet.... sometimes, though, it seems as if people have a difficult time DLing off of my comp.... hmmm.... but other than that, i would say that it rocks...

There's this excelent program called "Morpheus" that uses Radio City database and you can find 99% of the stuff you're looking for there.
I can't remember where I got it though so if you want just beep me at icq: 1916354
Happy downloading

On cnet the people only gave Morpheus a 60% approval. Here's what one person had to say:
The worst mp3-sharing programm seen so far. You MUST have macromedia flashplayer 5 installed. You can NOT choose which file-types to share, only folders can be (un)shared. It incorporates the Windows-Mediaplayer which is a security-hole. Dont wait long for Files to creep up that will exploit Morpheus once you click on them. Everythings active and automatic here. User-options are not on high demand it seems. If Morpheus doesnt find its sites, it will auto-connect you with Microsoft or Macromedia so you can download supposedly missing codecs and plugins. Be sure to forbid your Explorer to allow ActiveX from running - It isnt necessary to allow that. Don't ask me how why it runs anyway. Upon connecting Morpheus will open f.e. 73 new connections. And send f.e. 8 Pings. Dont forget to block their Adserver. The filename of the songs found has to be scrolled in for every search, unless you like to read hacked-off 50%25-correct names of groups and songtitles. Gone are the times where you could have several search-results on-screen in parallel. Happy times for bandwith killers in search of porn. Here it is: Loose your bandwith in search of music to downloaders of porn-vids. Thanks so much for this Musiccity ! If this isnt your downfall, then the next version will need to be your Salvation. Away with Macromedia, Explorer, Mediaplayer and "any-filetype-will-do" integration. It is NOT necessary. I want MUSIC.

woah
thanks alot
i use winmx and musiccity used to RULE!! With over like 30000gigs of stuff... but i think this filtering/banning thing has scared people to not share stuff so now there's like 900gigs of nothing on it =(
Hum my brother d/l yesterday Imesh, but if I see the list I gonna kick that program of the HD. Not much users on Imesh and its not only audio.
Latersss
I also read that Kazaa and Morpheus are basically the same program.

You read it twice ??
LoL, sorry. I was on here when the forums were REALLY busy yesterday and I must have hit the button twice in a act of rage, cause all I kept gettin was a "The server is too busy" message.

I also use limewire, can find almost everything that's filtered on napster. I'm downloading urban train now, a song i'm trying to get for quite a time but with no luck since napster filtered it.
I use Napigator which seems to be working very good. If you don't know this program allows you to choose your server, while still using the napster program. Has anyone had problems with using Napigator?
naw haven't had problems with napigator, but in the end you're still confronted with all the stupid filters and shit. 
so i just stopped using napster altogether pretty much.
Wow, i just downloaded limewire, and it totally rulez !
Just look at it!--> 310 TB available !
This is much better then napster, winmx or morpheus....
So what should i do???
Which program is the best one? Win mx, lime wire or audiogalaxy???
I'm not an computer freak so it must be pretty easy to handle
Laters
