| Re: Rest In Peace I stopped using Kazaa a long time ago.(using kazza lite client) The quality is sub par and good for finding the odd anime series no longer available on irc. It had a good run though. I think the main developer is in Russia so he should show shaman and keep releasing updates and give em a taste of their own medicine. ;p

Thats not true at all.. You just have to use the less popular methods that are getting way less attention in the news. (IRC & BT are my favs ATM.) 
--edit--
FTP is very private and what I use the most when possible.

| Re: Not for longsaid by Corvus :
Unfortunately, I'm sure Sharman will release a new version of Kazaa soon only to change protocol, Kazaa Lite wont work for long I think.
BINGO. Hold your cards folks. . . . per »www.slyck.com/news.php?story=339
This is what the Sharman Gestapo plan. . .
Not only has Sharman Networks succeeded in eliminating nearly every major resource of Kazaa Lite K++, they are systematically forcing it off the network.
How you ask?
Recent upgrades to Kazaa clients (2.5 and higher) make them less tolerant with outdated or non official clients such as Kazaa Lite K++. Kazaa Lite is based on a version prior to 2.5, therefore a current supernode will not accept its shares. Although this will cause network headaches in terms of traffic, the client will not be able to participate or download off the main FastTrack network. This will effectively cluster and isolate all modified Kazaa clients from FastTrack.
Well, won't Kazaa Lite clients simply form their own sub-FastTrack network?
Sounds nice, but no. Unfortunately, the developers of Kazaa Lite helped Sharman out tremendously by disabling the supernode function. Very few users who run this client are acting as supernodes. A decentralized P2P network with all clients and no supernodes cannot exist. The effects of this extermination is already taking place, as search times and connection times are deteriorating compared to K+ (the legitimate spyware/adware free version of Kazaa.)
As time progresses, the Kazaa Lite K++ client will become so unusable that its populace will be driven off the network. This latest act from Sharman punctuates a long history of hypocrisy that involves the protection of their own intellectual property rights, yet blatantly ignoring the copyrights of others.

lol yea I'm feelin that too. if people update kazaalite even though its officially dead, so it works with updated versions of kazaa-ill be the first one to download. not that I have anything against the original kazaa-its not too bad, but k++ gives a lot more options and less junk. | |

| Ummm people Kazaa is alive and well....it is kazaa lite that is no longer being OFFERED.
the kazaa lite software still works 100% but it is not longer being improved etc because of this.
I'm just stating this since the majority of comments on this article seem to be people who think Kazaa lite will no longer work and people who think the actual Fasttrack network is shut down

| Erm.... Well... looks like a new P2P will soon be coming out with this kind of interface.
Now my biggest question is why Morpheus and the other software are still able to run with Kazaa. I thought Kazaa ran off the Gneutella or whatever its called network. Sharman doesn't own that network, so they can't control who connects to it. Or am I wrong?
BTW, my Kazaa Lite still works fine, so either they can't block Lite users, or they haven't got around to it yet. | |

Kazaa uses FastTrac, not Gneutella.

No, Morpheus used to be on the FastTrac network.
