Acquisition and other Mac-friendly P2Ps

Message Bookmarked

Bookmark Removed

A, uh, friend of mine wants to know about the absolutely criminal and soul-damning P2P client Acquisition. If you use the free version, you only seem to tap into about three Limewire servers at a time (though a long time ago you'd get as many as 20 or 30). If you upgrade to the $17.99 version, do you get access to more servers?

Are there any other Mac P2P programs worth their salt?

Acqlite is great; like Acquisition but free and much faster/cleaner/more effective, in my experience.

for the music that philip wants, acq is just not going to cut it.

Cabos is a derivative of Limewire and Acquisition with a pleasingly simple interface.
