I was wondering if anyone had some kind of listing of P2P or other
file-sharing networks available for Mac. Preferably not Kazaa or
eDonkey. Something clean and smooth with a good amount of users with
NO SPYWARE OR ADS.

Yeah Kazaa screwed up my last computer. I'm a new Mac user, on PC I
used WinMX and it's pretty good. Just wondering if anyone had any
other suggestions, and I don't think WinMX works for Mac. Merci
beaucoup

I've found that Poisoned
(http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/20289) and
Acquisition (http://acquisitionx.com/) are the best, although
Acquisition does ask you to pay for it and you get a lag screen every so
often if you don't pay. I think it's every 45 minutes. Have fun. :)

I don't know of a Mac client for OpenNap servers.

Back when I was interested in P2P filesharing, I liked using
LimeWire. It's a Gnutella-network client.

There are other similar clients - acqlite and acquisition to name but two

macupdate.com - or similar with give many more ... with reviews!

But buying is preferable to piracy. By all means try it first; if it's worth
using it's worth buying. If not just lose it.

Me? I look for rare recordings of bands I like, plus any live ones. New
Order/Bunnymen doing anarchy in the UK!
