lets face some facts here...

firstly, emule doesn't even use the gnutella network (cept for Shareaza's ability to join in on emule files), hence comparing it like 'Bearshare is just a copy of emule but 10x worse' in this discussion is pointless and just spam....

secondly, gnutella clients are well known to kinda gravitate towards likeness, hence LW users will see mostly LW sources in their search results, BS will see mostly BS users in search results, etc....

it appears to this reader that garbagefan2's statement of 'the music i want isnt very well known. but all the other artists i like show a lot of results. no one uploads from me. but they will on lw. and im sharing the same songs' is a result of this tendency for like clients to cluster together...the underlying theme of this concept being that apparently LW users are more likely to be sharing and uploading these files...note the subsection of the above quote 'but all the other artists i like show a lot of results'...obviously (to me at least) 'more common' files show better results with BS than LW, yet the specialized tastes of garbagefan2 are more present with LW..

in general, most files being shared on p2p are all over...BS users, LW users, emule users, FastTrack users, BT users, etc...they all usually come from the same sources originally (private FTP servers) and slowly spread through most all the networks...files of 'less' popularity will tend to be seen on 'localized' areas of the net that 'specialize' in such tastes...
