Exeem Open Beta Released

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the download-it-with-kazaa dept.

BrasOnMyGuitar writes "The file sharing application known as eXeem (made by the creators of the now-defunct file-sharing site SuprNova.org) has gone into public beta. The program is based on the BitTorrent protocol. However, it eliminates the need for trackers and decentralizes the user from the network. This allows for Kazaa-style searching with the speeds and benefits of the BitTorrent protocol." Reader Eeknay points out that Linux users can run it too.

    I'm sure we've all felt like we're missing something since suprnova went down ;) I'm really excited to try this out and see what it's like. I love how every time people do things to limit rights, the open source community is there making sure everything is freely available
