Falco used to think that Gnutellas control was in his grasp,to me he is worse than the leeches of the RIAA,he is more dangerous than companies like the RIAA could ever be,at least the RIAA doesn't pretend to be your friend.
My advice?give Limewire the benefit of the doubt,they are used to being the darlings of Gnutella,if they are so confident of their product,let them sell their product in the real world without the added crap that goes with it,if they as a buisness decide that they can no longer try to sell to end users a buisness that is primarily used to download copyrighted material,then so be it.
As for Bearshare.....
