as far as your query to what other 'services' are available...

first, its not a 'service'...they are p2p clients...no files are hosted on a central server, rather they are shared by other users of the network...just because you might pay for the use, doesn't mean you are getting a guaranteed product...for such guarantees you would be using NetFlix or the iTunes store, not a p2p client...there are CANNOT be guarantees of any sort that can be applied truthfully for p2p...

besides BS, there is Phex, LimeWire and its sister/close FrostWire...those 2 are currently being supported and actively developed...Morpheus and other Gnucleus clones are not under developement though will still connect to the network...older versions of Shareaza are good, but the newest ones are bought out pieces of cr@p (i.e. the good Shareaza is out of date, but still works..the one under current development is like the new BS's...bogus)
