gnutella is overwhelming for some of us tech guru's too:)

Come on, how much simpler it can be ? I tried gnut on Linux and LimeWire on M$W. Both work well; the only thing is that out of more than 5k hosts, 2M files and 1PB* (1 million gigabytes) searched, I found exactly one host having decent rip of a CD I lent, never got back and cannot find anywhere now, new or used (Stravinsky's Firebird Suite in Tomita's rendering), and that host is always busy

Cheers!

* Hmm, 200 GB per host? Either LimeWire lies, or Gnutella fans have some serious resources...
