    Default OT- to those who download music... which software is best?

    Limewire?
    Bearshare?
    Kazaa?
    Emule?

    any users out there with an opinion?
    I just don't want to try them all - I have heard some good and bad things about all of them, so advice is appreciated!

    Default I switched from Kazaa to Limewire under the advise ...

    of a nephew attending a Computers technology carrer at the University. Feel it is better, but have never heard of the other two.

    If you're at school, both Kazaa and Limewire will get red flagged pretty easily, and bit torrent is just ****. At home I have limewire and kazaa, kazaa seems better for porn and limewire for music. At school there's always some new
    p2p sharing server popping up, be-it sharescan, i2hub, etc etc. Ares works now and again, but there are a lot of crap files. I miss the free napster.

    bitcomet absolutly rocks for anything as long as you have a good source for files, kazza lite used to be good but now if you dowmload any WMA files their usually loaded with ad files.

    Azureus is the best but torrents are slow compared to Limewire

    I used to think that but then I found bitcomet, which has automatic port forwarding. There was a site somewhere that went through all the configuration to make it faster. With multiple downloads going I get up to 500KB, thats not a slouch.

    if you try kazaa, consider kazaa lite resurection instead it claims it has no spyware, but still same features
