Best p2p software for Linux?

[Justice M]

Hey,

What is the best p2p software for Linux? If I install Linux, I'd like to download "back-up music" etc () with p2p software.

Thanks.
(Maybe WINE will let me run Windows-compatible p2p software?)

I'm rarely using P2P, but when I do, I use FrostWire, which basically is a clone of LimeWire (which exists for Windows) Besides downloading normal files, FrostWire is also able to download torrent-files (I've never tried this feature, but I know it's there) and it has a big chat, where you can chat with all the peers on the network (if you think that's interesting to do - also, I've never used this feature.)

FrostWire? I know that LimeWire is a HORRIBLE program for Windows. I know that there are a lot of trojans, viruses, and worms across that network. But wait, I guess with Linux you don't have to worry about that?

What's the URL to get FrostWire?

Are there different clients for each P2P network?

Thank you for that link. That looks like great software, even for Windows.
When I switch over to Linux I will definitely consider that.
