I subscibed to imusicsearch and laid out 28 dollars to start with this network. Is this necessary? It appears I would do better to purchase the PRO version as this is a p2p network.

Thanks for your help.

You don't even have to get the pro version.

There are different Gnutella Clients out there, some of them free.

You can get a list in the "How to get in" scetion of Gnutella For Users:
http://gnufu.net

As a shorthand here are some:

Open Source
»LimeWire ( http://limewire.com ) - A Cross-Platform Java Client, GPL, shareware.
»Phex ( http://phex.kouk.de ) - Another Cross-Platform Java Client, but with fewer developers and freeware, GPL.
»Gnucleus ( http://www.gnucleus.com/ ) - A LGPL Client for Windows COM-based
»Gtk-Gnutella ( http://gtk-gnutella.sf.net/ ) - A GPLed-client for Linux

Closed Source
»Acquisition ( http://acquisitionx.com ) - A Mac OS X client based on the limewire core, written in cocoa, shareware. (and a personal fave!)
»Bearshare ( http://bearshare.com ) - A closed source Windows Client.

You may not be interested in reading this but it's sort of about imusicsearch: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...t=imusicsearch

But it may not apply to you anyway. Just a discussion.

Umm ... but then again if you follow the links you'll find a no. of other people who 'also' purchased softw at imusicsearch. The link goes onto others also ... vicious circle.
