Does Shareaza Really Work?

Well myself I found both the eDonkey and BT to be better than the seperate ones. The eDonkey network is slow on any client until you build up your share ratio. The BT client is faster for me, and I have tested dl the same file at the same time and SZ is always faster. As for G1 and G2, never been a Gnut fan but its just extra sources, so no complaints. I heard G2 now has 80,000 plus users on at a time, not bad for a Gnut client...

80,000 ? I'm surprised it's that low, I guessed it would be at least a million on at the same time. It's a pity it doesn't tell you how many people are online at the same time, like k-lite does.
