Hotline Communications[edit]

I was surprised good ol' wiki didn't have an article about this one, so I created a new one, and now I need your help. Long story short, Hotline is the grand daddy of file sharing. That egregious piece of software went through many ups and downs but was ultimately doomed to commercial failure due to mismanagement, internal legal battles, and competition from modern p2p software. Now it has vanished into oblivion it seems. I'm sure some of you know about it out there, so come lend a hand or at least make some suggestions. Phils 14:34, 8 Apr 2005 (UTC)

It seems decent to me. About the only things I can think to suggest are to add appropriate categories (File sharing, Peer to peer, &c.); link "peer-to-peer" in the top section and, if possible, add in a screen shot of the Mac client. — RJH 17:01, 13 Apr 2005 (UTC)


!One could argue Hotline is not a true P2P app but as some client-server software suite. One that can be used by any average user.!
