The last version of one of the best know P2P programs.
At the beginning of the P2P technology, when there were neither mules nor torrents,
Kazaa shined as one of the best and most used applications to share music.
Due to the scarce bandwidth of that period, what users did most was to share loose songs.
Kazaa excelled as the
king of this kind of downloads, displacing the forerunner and ill-fated
Napster.
As time went past is started to be used less due to the emerging of eMule and various legal problems, until it has emerged from its ashes as a P2P tool that tries to be
social and places its roots in the management and reproduction of
multimedia files.
Kazaa come with
innovating tools like the possibility to import our contacts from
Skype and be able to speak and share files with them.
It also includes a
dating service that will allow us to speak with that boy or girl with an incredible music collection that is similar to our taste.
And to keep us protected from the threats that are associated to P2P nets, it includes a powerful
antivirus that will instantly detect if the file that we are downloading is infected.
The past and the future of P2P joins in a solution that tends towards the terrain of
social networks.
