Default I seem to be in the miniority here...

I haven't had problems with the new version's abilities. Yes, not knowing how many potential clients I have access to was annoying. but you know what? That didn't work in the old versions either... it was a meaningless number that was used by most as an artificial phalic to wave about.

I rarely have to disconnect from my first ultrapeer to find a host that has clients that have files I want. And I've _NEVER_ had a problem finding people willing to bombard my computer with requests for files in my library.

Do I get _more_ search results from Bearshare right now? Sure, and out of them I get maybe a 10% success rate in downloading. With this new client, perhaps it's the ultrapeer tech or perhaps it's that the people using the new client are actually 'dedicated' to the idea, but I've had a better than 40% success rate in getting files.

And given that, from my understanding, EVERY major client developer team have signed onto the Ultrapeer idea, I can only see it gettting better.

This is a bump people, stop making it out to be the end of the road.
