SoMud is a free cross-platform multi-language P2P client that offers a feature-packed experience for file sharing enthusiasts.

With SoMud, users can search, download, and even play web videos directly within the program's interface, thanks to its embedded media player. The ability to preview media files while they are being downloaded helps users avoid fake or spam files. Additionally, SoMud allows users to record their desktop or screen activity and share it with other peers, including audio and webcam images. The program also features a P2P wizard for creating custom torrents and parental control options for filtering keywords and locking specified content.
