    most likely... In fact Kazaa just settled lawsuits for copyright infringement... The transformation has begun... lol... just a matter of time before others will have to follow as well... so sad.

    Does anyone still use Kazaa??? The problem with lawsuits against guys like Kazaa is that by the time they are done, everyone has moved on to the next best thing.

    I remember using Kazaa to download crummy MP3's nearly a decade ago...
    Why haven't you moved on to torrents or mIRC?

    If you want to stick with P2P go with eMule or Limewire.

    Guys, please keep this thread legal - no links/directions for anything please. If it continues at the current rate, I'll be fine with it, but if it takes a turn for the worst, it will be closed because NotebookReview.com does not support illegal activities. I'm not saying that everything concerning Kazaa/Bittorrent is illegal, but most of the time when they are talked about, illegal stuff comes up.

    Thanks.
