*SoMud* is a free cross-platform multi-language P2P client that's not exactly
slick, but does return an impressive amount of results. SoMud allows you to
*search, download and even play web videos* within its interface thanks to
its own *embedded media player.* You can *preview media files* while they are
being downloaded which is handy for avoiding fake or spam files. The download
speeds are also impressive although it's obviously dependent on your
connection and the number of peers connected. SoMud is also unusual in that
it also allows users to *record their desktop or screen activity* and share
it with other peers. This includes audio and webcam images. In addition,
there's a *P2P wizard* that allows you to create your own torrents and
there's also parental control to filter specified keywords and lock specified
content. SoMud doesn't have the simple, slick interface that uTorrent has for
example. It's also rather annoying that when you install it, it automatically
opens the developer homepage in your browser. Finally, downloads are
generally reliable but can take some time to start. *SoMud is a very
interesting P2P client with some unusual features and may appeal to those who
want a bit more control over their P2P downloading than most other clients
allow.*Download *SoMud 1.3.5* in Softonic
