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

Trance in the morning and the day is your friend!

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

it's available at www.musiccity.com...

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.
