Well i just ran gnutella and d/l some mp3 files.to check it myself. Just get a server list from zeropaid.com and paste it into the line next to the add button on the gnutellaNet page and click add. This immediately brings up the hosts- connectioned. I try to get at least 10 connections up and running. Then go to the search page and type mp3 into the search field and click the search button. On my cable connection i get a full page of files listed within a few seconds. Make your selections and click d/l . Select a bunch all at once since some will fail due to time outs and must be restarted. Dont forget a lot of the connections are limited to 28kbs . The netstats on the first page will show how big the catch is e.g. 181 hosts; 1680998260 files ; 330.4 GB. If the net is very busy things run a bit slow so i just run it in the background and check it occasionally.YMMV.
