Hallow,

I looked through the FAQ and couldn't find anything about what Kazaa actually thinks about Kazaa Lite. I'm asking this because on Techlive (I think that was the show anyway) yesterday, Kazaa requested Google take down the directory slot for Kazaa Lite based on copyright infringement, of all things! Anyone hear about this? Google complied, btw (I checked myself) :o

K++ isn't really copyright infringement. It's more of a licence thing.

KMD is supposed to be used as is. K++ acts as a loader which removes the extraneous stuff, therefore amending the program at start-up.

I'm guessing that there isn't much public knowledge about how far Kazaa is willing to go against Lite, eh? Almost everything I've read here I already know anyway (except the license thing)

hello,

first I have to mention - that although I understand copyright issues - we have to share our thoughts also offline openly to understand each other better.

Then: The company of Kazaa (yellow one) Sharman - they are afraid or worry about Users leaving them and going to K-Lite. But they should not worry - cause
both programs connect to same network - although many people as me uses Kazaa Lite K++ (2.4.2 or older, depends on pc), the yellow Kazaa could be an alternative for some people who wish to use it furthermore... and cause both Kazaa versions
connect to same network they should work together.

I&#39;ve also READ: that the new Kazaa (yellow) plus shoud be sold for 30&#036;, but
sharing is not based on commercial stuff :) that is why they should not do this :)

Another reason for their action maybe: Sharman is supported by many advetisements (Spyware and so on, cause: how would you support development
of filesharing program in the economy other than with ads?) And if many people go to K-Lite, cause it is faster in some ways, some of the supporters of sharman would no longer support them and sharman would no longer be able to continue development with paying their programmers :( :)

That is why I love Random Nut and all people who developed this new k-lite :)
keep on working, this really a kind of art :) to make k-lite as same small as audiogalaxy before probably and faster... If any of you or other people need help,
feel free to ask me openly. I will try to help you as far as I can...

thanks anyway, david.

I just thought about that cause I knew I saw that name before that&#39;s the old kazaa ooook. And if I got this right they are coming for kazaalite because it&#39;s not there product. Damn, I might as well be a noob. :D

they don&#39;t give a rats ass about people coming to their network. I&#39;m thnking they don&#39;t even care about kazaa that putting more ads on it. To them kazaa is just a ad program :(

i dont think sharman really cares about kazaa lite. they can get thier program out through kazaa lite without thier ad companies getting mad because thier releasing thier software without thier ads that they are paying them for. less bandwith costs for them. kazaa lite does nothing but make kazaa more popular and the makers of kazaa lite K++ arent&#39; getting paid. so i dont think sharman really cares that much.
