LOL, - VDSL is more efficient because it allows connection speeds up to 52Mb/s compared to ADSL's 10Mb/s. Your connection is limited to 256Kb/s and you still get off on having VDSL. It's just sad, man.

I think it's fair to compare LimeWire to GiFT. Depending on what you are looking for GiFT may have an advantage over LimeWire due to the fact that it connects to Fasttrack and OpenFT which have a slightly different content from Gnutella. On the other hand GiFT is neither a very good Fasttrack client nor a great Gnutella client. - A jack of all trades and master of none. And it will never become an option for the mainstream user until it has its own Gnutella ultrapeers.
