aMule

Fun link of the day: The iTunes 5 Announcement From the Perspective of an Anthropomorphized Brushed Metal User Interface Theme (Daring Fireball)

Loyal readers (and I know I’m running out of them) know that I appreciate the occasional educational video. BitTorrent, however, is a den of thieves just waiting for the next big police raid. So I decided to move on with the technology to eDonkey. I checked out likely eDonkey clients for the Mac and decided on the cross-platform aMule, even though their mac client is just an experimental daily build.

To set up aMule I followed the directions in their wiki, with some bandwidth-setting advice from their ED2K faq. Other things I’ve heard about the network are that it’s not as fast as BitTorrent, but has more stuff available. I’ll find out either way.
