Arn't they the same network so the users and files are the same? According to slyck.com they are. Both on the MP2P network.

Well, if they run on the same network (do they?), then how can you compare "users and music"?
Piolet seems a bit more stable.
I don't really care for the network, to tell you the truth. So I don't use Piolet often.

yeah that was part of my reasoning for asking the question i did. but i checked blubster and piolets users and stuff at the same time. piolet had more users but less files. but it was close like 500,000 files or something

It probably depends on how often the two programs update the number of users and how it is calculated. Kazaa estimates by the number of users and files by looking at the number on the supernode you are connected to. Perhaps the MP2P apps use the sam sort of system.

Key word here, "estimate".
You're obviously not going to get an exact, up to the second count.
