Direct Connect Mac OS X

by

Neo-Modus posted a news update which indicates that their Direct Connect client software will be released for Mac OS X at the end of this month:

    Hey guys, it's been a while since I posted anything. I've been getting so much e-mail from enthusiastic Mac OS X users asking about Direct Connect that I thought I'd post some info here to clue everyone in. As it stands, the Mac OS X version of Direct Connect is 'done'. Which means it is feature complete and I've given it to a few of my friends for testing. I plan on releasing it before the 31st of this month.

Direct Connect is a popular PC file-sharing network, based on user-run servers (known as hubs) and claims 1 Petabyte of data on their network.

Other popular PC file-trading network companies such as Morpheus, Grokster and Madster are under legal proceedings presently.
