"April 21, 2008 BitTorrent sees big growth, LimeWire still #1 P2P app http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20080421-study-bittorren-sees-big-growth-limewire-still-1-p2p-app.html Last week, the Digital Music News Research Group released its quarterly P2P report. The for-pay report covers the fourth quarter of 2007, but a publicly available excerpt breaks down the data for the period between September 2006 and September 2007. The data consists of snapshots of P2P application and protocol use collected from over 1.66 million Windows PCs. Gnutella is still the top P2P network, but BitTorrent has been steadily rising. LimeWire still rules the P2P world. It is by far the most popular single P2P application, appearing on 36.4 percent of the machines surveyed as of last September. LimeWire also accounts for the overwhelming majority of Gnutella use among the top 13 of the 152 applications found on PCs. Gnutella was the protocol of choice for 40.5 percent of the PCs at the end of the period covered by the survey. "

I mean, come on. you act like its dead and buried.

^ Umm that article was written about the period from September 2006 to September 2007... ancient history in internet terms.

12/27/2008 3:42:39 PM

so what p2p network do you use?

12/28/2008 4:13:33 PM

W.A.S.T.E

12/28/2008 4:15:29 PM

Frostwire over Limewire

12/28/2008 4:18:19 PM

yeah....

Frostwire == Limewire Pro. save you $20.

but my noob question still remains: is there a better free p2p network than gnutella?

w.a.s.t.e. looks interesting i suppose, but it seems targeted to japanese 20-somethings, and im not really looking for a(nother) social network.... Tdub is social enough for me

Well if you want your "vids" joe_schmoe.

Try using newsgroups. Good ones cost a little money, but they're worth the extra time you save when you need to.

But suddenly, I viddied that thinking was for the gloopy ones, and that the oomny ones use like, inspiration. Now it was lovely music that came into my aid. There was a window open with the stereo on, and I viddied right at once what to do.
