P2P clients have gone downhill these days. Soulseek is still good for some albums/singles etc.. limewire can be hit and miss with people showing blag files.
I'd stick with torrents and download azureus, bitlord etc..

uTorrent is only as shite as the torrents you download, its a great BT client
Like _Allan_ said, stick with torrents, limewire/ Kazaa/ etc have all had their day

Yip utorrent is different from shareaza limewire etc.
If you thought it was utorrent that was bad i'd have a read about and see whats what.
I use utorrent and torrent sites only, been a while since I used any p2p client like emule.

"blag files" are a problem on limewire, but it's still one of the best if you're lookin for a single or an old movie imo.

UTorrent is only a torrent client, it isn't a P2P client like kazaa/limewire etc So like said, it's only as "shite" as the torrents you're downloading...so i would go on a hunt for a decent torrent website  or just use google ie: "torrent: blah".
As for P2P clients, dont bother using them here, usually can get everything off torrents and if i can't get a certain track then i buy it from allofmp3

The rorrents are as green as green can be health wise (on torrentspy)

for rare albums and singles your best off using soul seek.
for random songs or files limewire is good.
movies, games and albums torrent files

You do know that Limewire is under investigation? I wouldn't touch it with a bargepole
Torrents are definitely the way forward.

Your isp could be throttling bittorrent traffic, your ports might not be set up right.

That too, as John states above......configure a high port number in say the 49*** range and allow that through any firewall you're running and in your router if you have one.
