Sphinx is flying high
Default

winmx has been shutdown. P2P has limited amount of active hosts on any given day and you can only connect to these hosts if they are online. You can only connect to other peers if they are using a P2P Gnutella client like Bearshare/Limewire etc. You can only go as high as 14 active hosts I think is the limit with any P2P app. only if you're lucky enough to connect to them while online at the sametime. Not sure about how much bigger you can get in the search results. The popular files will have the most multiple hosts but, that doesnt mean these hosts will be active at the time of your download.
