KaZaA's going DOWN

by **mr rom** on Thu May 23, 2002 7:46 pm

Oh, I'm so sad... Lookie here: http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f ... ncial1929E DT0213.DTL

I wonder what people will switch to after KaZaA craps out? I'm thinking of using Grokster...

Edit: Edited for spelling mistake.

Fuck. Sorry. KaZaA is my god. That's where I get 3/4 of everything I download. ~shrug~ What other p2p progs are out there?

Peace.

Isn't eDonkey (or whatever it's called) a P2P program?

by **adidas** on Fri May 24, 2002 3:23 am

eDonkey sucks. I expect WinMX to become the most popular p2p if Kazaa goes down

WinMX is only for music, correct? No point in using a music-only P2P program. Why have only music, when you can have it all? :P

People can share any file type at all on WinMX

It isn't going anywhere...

here's a quote from the link posted by mr rom.

"The collapse of Kazaa, however, is not expected to slow trading activity on the company's network, one of the most popular file-sharing sites in the world. Kazaa said it has sold the network to another firm that the music and film industry has not sued yet."

So, it isn't going to die out just yet [img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]

Are you guys using KaZaA Lite? If not you should be...

by **were** on Sun May 26, 2002 8:13 pm

hmm..i just heard that the music companies are going after audiogalaxy now..how long do u think that's going to tie the court system now?

by **geesehoward** on Mon May 27, 2002 6:04 am

i wish they would stop it, i'm tired of suits ruining everything for us.

by **adidas** on Mon May 27, 2002 9:17 am

Yes, I'm definitely using Kazaa Lite.

I'd say that the record companies are stupid for trying to sue, but if they don't persue what they perceive as copyright infringement then they really WILL have problems.

I wish there was a solution where everyone could be happy but I guess there isn't

I've been using IRC lately to get albums anyway [img]images/smiles/icon_razz.gif[/img]
