Title: alternative to eDonkey?
Post by: Synbios on October 08, 2006, 02:38:13 am
as many of you know, the edonkey2000 client was recently discontinued after encountering some more legal problems.

I was a big fan of this client, obviously not for speed but for it's ability to find super rare files. I think we can all agree that the eDonkey/Overnet network had more files than any other network. It was poorly designed and was pretty slow, but after a couple hours or days of downloading I could always find super rare trance tracks that I'm looking for.

Does anyone use eMule, eMule Plus, eMule xTreme, Shareaza, or any other edonkey clients? I'm having a hard time finding one that works well because there are so many options.

I would gladly ditch the eDonkey network if I found another one with the amount of files that it has to offer. Gnutella definitely cannot stand up, and BitTorrent is certainly not an alternative (since it's mainly for large, somewhat popular files)

We use eMule Plus, used to use eMule but it has a bunch of stuff we don't need and Plus has a nicer interface.

I've never had any lasting problems with eMule Plus and found their support forum to be fairly useful, you have to be a bit more careful with ports than some other programs/networks but other than that it's pretty good.

Emule and I think shareaza supports it.
