Comment have you ever heard of opensource? (Score 1) 340
yeah, sure you could buy limewirepro (and i know they've opensourced at least some of their stuff, only joe average user doesn't want to hack away all the ads which are there in their opensource version, too)
but then again there's gnucleus (GPL), which i have found to be the best windows gnutella client, which doesn't have any corporate shit in it, and there's other opensource gnutella clients for windows and some for linux, and possibly other OSs, too.
i mean there really is enough free-as-in-speech filesharing software out there, quite a buch of the programs are easy to use, gnutella with supernodes rocks, there's the openFT effort (though not finished yet), there's freenet...
what i just hate are users bitching about companies which they really don't need to have any business with, there are enough alternatives, if nobody uses ad- and spyware-enabled apps these companies just die, exactly what they deserve. you can make the difference, and it won't even hurt (quite the opposite in fact)
