If you had said a simple "Yes". Emule works almost exactly like bitorrent. What's the user base? I can see ~1M clients with ~70M files or so in emule.


You don't see other users, you don't trade files with them. You don't search for files.

You go to www.slashdot.org, you click on a .torrent file they or a friend of theirs hosts, the download bar progresses as you download the animatrix from other people using BitTorrent and they you. All it is, is a simple bandwidth redistributor. There's no 'users' or 'files' to click on.
