    Looking for a good P2P

    My GF wants a new P2P music sharing thing. She's not exactly comp savy, so it can't be too complicated, and it should probably have a minimum of spyware.

    She currently has Kazaa lite resurrection (or something like that) and complains it won't download movies (keeps cancelling etc...).

    What's good?
    Don't pay attention to this signature, it's contradictory.

    Shareaza might work well for her. Just make it connect to eDonkey besides the default Gnutella 2 and there is loads of stuff to get.

    Note: just an answer to the question, I take no responsibility on the morality issues

    BitTorrent is good, but you need to know and learn places where you can use it. That's why I think it might be too hard for his GF. But if you want a suggestion for a client, I like to use TorrentStorm (though I think its latest build had some weird bug, I haven't downloaded torrents in a while now - been buying DVDs ).

    When did that start? I normally just give them lots and lots of rocks. Also, where can I get this "cash."
