CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET staff on February 20, 2009
Though it's mostly easy to use and boasts a couple of extras, Soulseek's shaky performance makes it a strictly average file-sharing option. The interface isn't beautiful, but it does provide large clear icons for performing actions such as searching for files, sharing folders, and creating a wish list. In some cases, we immediately were able to begin looking for results, but in others, we had problems connecting.
When we were able to undertake successful searches, we found many files were unavailable. Search speeds also were below average, although the inclusion of a chat-room feature is a nice touch. Since it is free, P2P fans might take Soulseek for a spin, but they'll probably also want to keep another few file-sharing clients at their disposal.

Version: Soulseek 157 NS 13e
Pros: Great for finding those rare files you seek
Cons: slow downloads and queue's.
Summary: I think quite a few time wasters use this app! you could be half way through a download and then some twit will block you and you will be stuck with half an album.
Come on people if your going to share, then share fairly.
