Best P2P File Sharing Program?

What do you think?

I used to use Kazaa Lite, than got fed up with all the corrupt files. So than I switched to Limewire, and thought it was great.

Just wondering if there's any better ones? But not things like iMIRC, or whatever it's called, don't feel like learning how to use it.

My friend uses eDonkey (no not eMule, eDonkey) and I've never heard of it, has anyone?

I like limewire better then Kazaa lite but I rarely ever use either.

mIRC wasn't designed for file-sharing, but you can still find good stuff if you know where to look.

BitTorrent is probably the best, but if you use the "official" client there's no search function.

Bit torrent is my favorite. Use azureus for client though, very nice, and no spyware.

Shareazza is the best - It uses bit torrents. You download shareazza, then go to a site like suprnova.org and download a torrent while you have shareazza running. Shareazza cues up the download, the you can close the site and download it anytime you want in shareazza.

Bittorrent has owned the bandwidth of many p2p users (myself included) and its service has grown MASSIVELY in the past year -- for anyone who is unaware, several internet bandwidth tracking companies have all fingered Bittorrent as accounting for roughly 40% of ALL the internet traffic combined. FOURTY PERCENT! That is incredible. Unfortunately, also for anyone who is unaware, the last week or so has seen several crushing blows dealt to the Bittorrent community, with many of the major sites being forcefully, or voluntarily, shutdown under pressure from (surprise surprise) Hollywood and the record companies. Ever the whiney babies about "their property" being openly traded, they've taken drastic steps against the community. After all, our p2p file sharing is supposedly abuse of the system, and deemed criminal. But charging 14+ dollars for a plastic disc isn't? Anyway, before I tumble off into the much-travelled route of bitching out the RIAA/MPAA and their despicable practices, I'll make my own recommendation. I've been using Soulseek for a couple years now, and have been pretty happy with it. No ads, little overhead, chat features, que lists, etc. I'd been using Bittorrent chiefly for a while now, but until the large .torrent tracking sites can hopefully get back online (overseas maybe?) I find myself falling back on Soulseek. I haven't used Kazaa since I installed and began running cleanly off a new harddrive (and my computer thanks me for it!)

I use Limewire also but I gotta say Bit Torrent is the best. So go with Bit Torrent/Shareazza.
