I don't have a problem against leechers.

The problem is when there is such a massive volume of leechers that regular people can't get files.

Such was the situation when BearShare was first release. BearShare was the first Gnutella servent to show the User-Agent in uploads.

All of a sudden, people were asking "Hey, what's this Mozilla, is it another Gnutella servent?".

The answer is, NO! It was browsers, and they were taking up 98 PERCENT OF ALL UPLOAD SLOTS!

It was the primary cause for busy signals in Gnutella.

MusicCity is pretty stupid for allowing browsers, now we will see those web sites that leech Gnutella and show banners spring back up like weeds, and pretty soon you will never be able to get files from Morpheus users.

Again, I don't mind freeloaders (BearShare has no anti-freeloader features), as long as the network can support both the freeloaders and the people who share.

Unfortunately, a network which allows browsers can never support everyone.
