I would like to know what everyone has been getting on this new and "tremendously fast" p2p app. Also, will Piolet be able to do video files sometime soon? I can't wait to download a DIVX movie in just 1 hour instead of 5.

as for download speeds, i don't watch mine...they're always done by the time i look at them...but video to the piolet/blubster? not gonna happen, not any time soon anyway. i have a feeling that the "audio-only" content is what makes the network so efficient, and if it was less efficient, it would be just the same as the next network.

You could be right about the efficiency...But if that is true, how come Audiogalaxy and other "audio only" p2p programs weren't as fast? Theres something in Piolet that others don't have thus making the possibility of fast video downloads too...who knows....
