Hmmmm.....
Morpheus is not a 'bogus app'...... it is the result of a very large number of people who are not p2p 'savvy' coming into the Gnutella Network very quickly - almost like a tidal wave...... The problem is mainly that there are suddenly a very large number of users who are not using the correct configurations and who are unaware of this error. The very great majority of Morpheus users should NOT be operating as Ultrapeers....... This is the main problem. But, this problem is hardly limited to Morpheus users.... it is true for the great majority of users and clients...... It's only that there are so MANY Morpheus users and they arrived so SUDDENLY!
And now, hang on to your hats for the next
tsunami caused by the removal of AudioGalaxy..... Those users are not going to take up model airplanes and crocheting!!!
They are coming into Gnutella NOW! Perhaps the impact will not be so great as there is no one yet 'compelling' ex-AG users to use one cloned client as Morpheus did with their 'customers' and the Gnucleus clone they are using.....
