I don't have much data to compare. I search only occasionally, and everything I can say about result quality is just rough gut feelings. But I tend to agree: My received query results are not more useful than before. BTW, the "healthy" connection profile I wrote about seems to be not very stable. Now that the BearShare monopoly is circumvented, it is quite hard for me to avoid a LimeWire monopoly, and this bias seems to get stronger every day, possibly due to my ultrapeer cache slowly converging to reflect that monopoly. Perhaps one of the two recent measures to keep BearShare out of our cache was one too much in the long run? h ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
