Despite not being the most popular filesharing service on the Internet, Soulseek has made the bold move that others have yet to do by bringing filesharing to the iPhone. Soulseek was created by former Napster programmer Nir Arbel, but the service has never been able to make a dent on popular services such as Limewire and BitTorrent.
Errrick has created iSlsk, a slick little filesharing app for cracked iPhones. The filesharing program works with Soulseek’s network. The big issue really is why it has taken so long for someone to come out with a filesharing program for the iPhone.
iSlsk lets users search for and download files straight to an iPhone. Being a bit under the table, this filesharing app will never be officially available for iPhones, if only because such a filesharing app has the serious potential to eat into Apple’s profits with iTtunes.
Has anyone tried this new filesharing service? Any thoughts?
