Interesting Fact

In the last 4 hours on Yahoo.com the word "Kazaa" is the 4th most searched word! The RIAA isnt ending Kazaa...its helping it! The RIAA is doing so much to shut down Kazaa that it acutually is only getting us more users. Their are two bad things though. 70% of Kazaa users do not share ANY files. so all of those files on Kazaa are ONLY 30% of our files. The other bad thing is that they are searching for Kazaa , and not Kazaa Lite. But thats better for us,they dont have the protection from Peer Guardian and other programs so they get caught first.

EDIT: Kazaa Lite is number 17 i think.

EDIT: Oops i had google.com at first, but i mean Yahoo.

Even if 30% share, most of them only share a handful of files -- they often empty/remove their shared directories of all but the tiniest downloads... I see lots of people sharing only a couple MP3, TXT files, JPG/GIFs, etc -- with a combined shared amount of less than 10 MB.

We can't share everything to make up for the ones who share nothing.

i dont think there is 256 million users though.....i think thats for ALL of the kazaa versions put together.....so it doesnt beat the hell out of napster. Napster beats the hell out of it.

I share 496 files, totalling about 14 1/2 GB.
People should at least share what they download, like I do.
Anything that I download stays in My Shared Folder, except fakes.
People should realise that if we stop sharing, Kazaa will just disappear, and no one will be able to get anything from anyone.
The whole idea of P2P is sharing, not just downloading.
