I use Kazaa most of the time and I use WinMX when I have a heard to find song. WinMX seems to have a larger selection of less known songs than other music programs. I think Kazaa is more user friendly.

I use Morpheus with a cable modem. What I tend to do is select half a dozen instances of the same piece I'm looking for and then select the couple which are downloading the quickest. (deleting the others) That gives me a standby in case one connection is broken.

I find Morpheus pretty reliable.

Has anyone else been having problems with the new version of WinMx? The thing has a tendency to crash/reboot my system.
