Besides, I'm not just chatting... I also share over 5000 files on winmx
for other people to download, while I prefer to download on other p2p
programs myself.
Winmx is still a nice venue to meet with fellow p2p sharing
enthusiasts. Once you meet
someone who has an interesting collection you simply exchange stuff via
ftp which is
much more convenient than winmx to exchange stuff.
