  1. Review - Direct Connect for Windows

    1.0 Preview Build 9 (Oct 18, 2001)

    im gonna have to agree with "Joohn" (??) on the idea about making money off a program like this. people are always gonna pirate stuff, the only "evil" people though are the ones that make money off of it. These are the people that get busted by Microsoft and video game companies and stuff. i hope this guy gets sued by the RIAA or something for making money off the prorgram. people should be free to write any program they want, people should be free to ask for money for certain software they write, and people should be free to make decisions (however wrong or immoral) to use/make copies of software - but to make money off someone else's stuff? blah... other than that, the Peer2Peer stuff seems to be catching on more than Gnutella style networks. however, Peer2Peer networks need to be more open sourced like Gnutella. cause if a Peer2Peer service gets killed (Morpheus/Kazaa, Direct Connect, etc), then the whole network that it had running through it will die unless there is some open source clients keeping it alive.
