Do you think that it's worth bothering with v2.5 Geoff?

Won't it have more spyware stuff than v2?

Hi Ron, Probably, I just use the lite version.

The reason for the post is it would seem that kazaa are slowly heading the way of many of the P2P networks by also offering as pay as you download service, or as they like to call it "licensed content channels ", I can only assume they have been threatened a few times, and want to be seen doing their bit.

Do you think that it's worth bothering with v2.5 Geoff?

Well, I am not going to try it, unless I am tempted otherwise, the sponsered bundle it comes with puts me right of TBH.

Geoff

More than likely, but like Napster, as one door closes another one seems to open.

It is rumoured that the Companies that enforce the copyright "lurk" on the P2P networks :erm:

Whoopee more memory grabbing, annoying pop up ads.

I think I'll stick with Kazaa Lite. :D
