BearShare 4.7.0 Beta 47 - http://www.softpedia.com/get/Internet/File...BearShare.shtml

you guys actually still use bearShare when there's far better p2p file sharing programs out there?

[DanyBoss]

I am admin on Softpedia and i know that the version posted by King Mustard is old.

The best p2p is BitTorrent :)

Bittorrent isnt p2p.

[Quboid]

Bittorrent is P2P but not in the same way as Kazaa or Bearshare. I'm not sure what's best these days, I still use Bearshare for some reason.

[DanyBoss]

To make you happy is the best file sharing.

[Sputnik.RU]

LimeWire is the best Gnutella based P2P ;)

[Favvi]

bittorrent is slow (N)

Not really usually if some has a virus and tries to send it to others in the channel, they are banned+kicked and can't rejoin until they clean up their system.

I just use eMule and BT. Sometimes I fire up Kazaa Lite for old times sake but I rarely find anything worth getting. AresLite is decent too.

Some points...

1) I posted this version as I use BearShare everyday, and I opened it today and a message popped up saying it'd been released.

2) I have never found a place to download single MP3 torrents, and even if there are websites, chances are they'll be only the brand new albums.

3) BearShare downloads extremely quickly, and I haven't found many fake files at all.

4) BearShare does come with Adware, but Ad-Aware completely removes all traces of the stuff BS installs.

5) KaZaA Lite hasn't worked for my mates or myself for months now and even when it does connect, there usually isn't many files and those that exist take a long time to download.

Finally, does anyone know a fast mirror to download BearShare 4.6.2 or preferably BearShare 4.7.0 BETA 47? Cheers!

I use LimeWire pro mostly, fast easy and can check for corrupt files.

[Slimy]

both limewire and bearshare are junk

ares lite will own all of them, (all the kazaa-like apps)

irc ownz all if you know what your doing :). get in crowds and your hooked up perm.

I never could get bearshare to work when I first tired it, but this was ages ago.
