oh by no stretch of the imagination am I thrilled and with the current network... but I am happy with it... I think that in time we will get to that point... I've been using gnutella since last year and I only recently became interested in how it operated... I personally feel that it has come a long way... I'm sorry to hear that you have trouble with the clients... have you tried all of them... I find that gnucleus and Xolox work really well... also what kind of music are you looking for???
