Whats the best p2p programs out there?

[Vanhalen]

I currently use shareaza and limewire, ive heard good things about soulseek, what would you guys recommend?

[Obi Chris Kenobi]

Been ages since I've used anything like that, whenever I do its usually to get hold of Bootlegs, which I use DC++ for.

[Mik]

Just download bit torrent and use torrent sites.

[Youth N Asia]

Bit Torrent is the way to go

[Craig Th]

If anything, use a bit torrent P2P program. Those are the best.

[Golgo 13]

Soulseek for music, Shareaza for everything else, but yeah, torrents as an absolute first option.

A which?

[Renegade]

Bittorrent. With sites like Oink, demonoid and cheggit you never need to use any other p2p ever again.

[Vanhalen]

Tbh I thought I could gorge myself on bittorrent, but I'm having real problems getting it to work with my router and firewall.

Agreed. I've found insane amounts of music thanks to Soulseek.

[Golgo 13]

True. For rarer and independent music, as well as stuff that can't be found on torrent sites anymore for whatever reason, it's very good. The folder download option is a godsend too. The only knock I have against it is the lack of multi-source. Which is why for more popular music guaranteed to have more peers, I still refer back to Shareaza.

 

Also, Shareaza uses the Gnutella2 network as well as Limewire's (among many other clients') Gnutella. So unless you have problems connecting to G1 through Shareaza it's kind of pointless to have both.
