Pros: As is none. There was a time when Bearshare was about as good as it got but no more.

Cons: Full of spyware and what you download cannot be burned in a program like Nero because the mp3 file is saved as a special Bearshare file. Instead of a music icon, you will have a bearshare icon which will "ONLY" play on your computer and will not work in your CD creation software. What use is the program then? I download to burn not just to sit at the computer and listen.

I'd give it no stars if I could. Don't bother.

Pros: None.

Cons: The music files are .wma's or special bearshare files therefore will not burn, create CD, NOR play on mp3 players. The program is simply now for music and videos and nothing else.

It's said to be free but will always have an "upgrade now" popup. If you do not upgrade, it will not do anything else. It also lacks the download of programs/documents/images. Don't waste your time. It has ads and spyware anyways. I'd say the old version would have been better.

Pros: Sounds good.

Cons: IS NOT GOOD! It's full of spyware, and nothing would play, just those stupid bearshare files sitting on my computer like crows on a fence.

Pros: LIKE OLDER VERSION BETTER THAN NEWER VERSION

Cons: FULL OF SPYWARE!!!!! I used this program years ago and i liked it, but when I donnloaded the newer version i hated it. Everytime I ran a spyware scan with the newer or older version it came up with this program. I switched to limewire and WILL NEVER SWITCH BACK. I RECOMMEND LIMEWIRE OVER BEARSHARE ANYDAY!!!!!
