OK Adam, you have to be playing with me, your IQ is way too high to not get this.
Sleep on it, go party (must be nice to have big bucks to party with) come back and read the threads again, and think seriously about how your packets travel through non LimeWire clients, how they provide LimeWire users with files, and how that improves your user's experience so they keep using your product and keep viewing your SPAM (ads, shopping site, whatever pay for clients will offer).

Adam, a lot of developers didn't agree with XML, mostly the "small" ones you love to ignore. A lot of them threw their hands up and gave up. You just did what ever your corporate attitude wanted to do, and what was in the corporations best interest. You and Vinnie lost a lot of support by ignoring the small developers, making sure they couldn't keep up.
You unfairly use the network to make $$$ that allows you to advance far beyond developers who are doing this for free. You need your own network.
This is the problem with greed, and it needs to get off Gnutella.
We all know you and BearShare will eventually create your own network, as soon as you use all the resources on Gnutella to build a decent user base.
With the new software you won't be able to do that, we now have a way to fight against you using our resources for your corporate profit.
Now your only choice is to try to make your own private network and hope you don't go bankrupt doing it. It's pretty hard to make a profit without us, isn't it?

Moak, Gnucleus has superpeers now, we don't need LimeWire or superpeers to "scale", never really did, Morpheus jumping on proved that. The code is there, it's open source so anyone can apply it to their client. It's free, and you don't need big inve$tors and a lot of fluff staff members to get it working. Plus it doesn't "cluster" and even if it did, at least you know the clustering isn't to make a third party a buck.

RAM, thanks for all your hard work on a truly free and open source client. You have a good "political" position there.
I see the writing on the wall if we let these corporations keep sucking our resources and had to do something about it before it got worse, Vinnie was just the last straw. Gtk-gnutella has already been modified for this so you don't have to worry about it.

We could always swing the other way, everyone start making pay for clients, with adware, popups and spam so there is no other choice but to put up with the corporate garbage, and a few of us will get rich!
That is the corporate plan after all, isn't it?

Block'em all!
