As somebody who runs 24/7 on both Gnutella and G2 (using Shareaza, BearShare, Limewire, just downloaded Phex), I welcome Phex downloads.
However, there have been reports that Phex is leeching by spoofing G2 headers. If Phex isn't going to support G2, that's cool, it's obviously up to GregorK, but it's not kosher to spoof the headers. Shareazas that don't have Gnutella support turned on can't download from Phex users, and the ones that can download from Phex users, you should be able to DL from the same as any other Gnutella client. Personally, I see about 80% of my uploads go to Gnutella, which is fine with me so long as the Gnutella clients play nice.
Thanks for your consideration. Hi, ev! |
