Kazaa shuts down Kazaa lite

*breaks down and crys*

truly a blow to everyone...and to the liberal software world...anywhoooo

well my Kazaa Lite is still running fine, and until it starts to slow down, i'll stick with it...and when that day comes, theres always Diet K!

oh well

/me plays the smallest violin in the world for Shaman networks.

I work for an ISP support desk, and I *hate* Kazaa. Hate that *expletive deleted* software like a passion.

Torrent. Is all I will say.
So you can still get all your porn and "free" apps.

Unless the software is built like Stardocks.

there is still emule... man Kazaa Lite K++ was the best

kazaa lite was surely the best..anything you wanted..its there//i didnt really like the regular kazaa anyway, first and now kazaa light, the old morpheus was the shit...now it sucks

My KaZaA Lite is working just fine. Pretty ironic that a program designed to help pirate things is worried about people pirating their service.

This is a sad day for people everyware people who made a program for stealing software and music are shutting down websites for stealing thiers i use kazaa lite k++ and will be sharing it on everyother filesharing network i can just to keep it alive as im sure many other people will

sry just my little rant for the week.

\\\Truly, a major...blow to pirates, warezers, leeches, and porn users everywhere. More info on The Register///

omg...lol. Thats hilarious, way to say it like it is

gee, looks like we got some warez fans on here... ?

Look ma, people on high horses! And er, ma, they seem to be quite oblivious as to how things work. Must be because they sit so high that they can't see what's going on below.

Its A Hearbreaking News..........But K++ is still doing its job

Damn...where AM I going to get my spyware from now?

Tell me Craeonics, who are these people on high horses? And in what way are they oblivious oh wise one?

how 'bout they decide to make money without clogging computers with spyware.

First of all, Sharman, riding the high horse for defending their "intellectual property" (they are not the original developers, by the way) of an app whose primary use is to spread material, regardless of its copyright, is oblivious to the fact that by taking this step they alienate part of FastTrack's user base.

Now some of them will use Sharman's spyware incarnation, but I suspect more and more will head for the alternatives. Thus, the diversity of available files and sources will diminish.

Coupled with more and more bogus files, this will mean that KaZaA and possibly is slowly but steadily slippling into the abyss.


Secondly, all those that say "ha, evil warez users, that will teach you" (can't stand that attitude), are oblivious of the fact that the alternatives are plentifull.

A major blow? Don't think so.

I think Sharman Networks "went after" K++ to cover their butts for "going after" the RIAA for using software on the same wire as Kazaa. Would only make sense; if they go after a large entity like the RIAA then the RIAA will fire back with everything else that is accessing the network.

Honestly, I don't think we'll ever see the end of K++ ...

Crae: My comment was tongue in cheek regarding "major blow".

I just don't have any sympathy for warez people or parasites like Sharman networks.

kazaa will always be the best for music, but you don't need k-lite for that. just delete the spyware with dietkaza from www.dietk.com

I have been using BearShare for the longest time and it's great for downloading music etc.

just because you have k++ doesnt mean you download warez i likemany independant artists and k++ is where i heard of all of them since then i have bought their albums it is not just for pirated stuff.

secondly k++ has no ads you are thinking of normal kazaa which sucks and thats why k++ came about if they just made it add free then k++ might not have had to compete with them

last K++ still lives on if you want it just join and search their forums people are still hosting it.

So the robed get robbed by the same method?

now how am i gunna get my porn so fast

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Well, mine is still working fine...

using it right now. tho kazaa (and k-lite) are best, there's still winmx, shareaza, dc++, ftp, etc...

it'll just be harder to find rare stuff like the 2pac - rap phenomenon 2 cd i'm getting right now.

kazza sucks i never have liked it im not into anything with spyware in it i use other programs such as dc and winmx to share my music
