Out of all the for profit P2P programs(excluding Usenet apps) Morpheus is the best. It's better than Kazaa or TrustyFiles or any of the others in the "for profit" category. But being in that category is a instant 2 point deduction.
When it first starts, like most programs it needs to hash all your files. Morpheus takes several hours more than any program I've ever tried. So be prepared to have your ram and cpu through the roof at startup. -1 point.
If you want to uninstall, you must have an active internet connection. The uninstaller won't run until the "Why are you uninstalling?" screen has been loaded from a Morpheus server. Then you must either pick one of the options or hit cancel to get it to uninstall. -1 point.
NEOnet support is does give Morpheus a unique quality. It's a developed DHT network. +1 point.
NEOnet paired with Gnutella and G2 gives it pretty good download speeds. I reached 19.5kB download and 9kB upload. +1 point.
I give it a 3.

Drastically improved over the spyware infested 4.5. The 5 beta still hogs alot of resources though.

Morpheus has removed all adware and spyware and it appears to be a pretty good P2P client. I give it a 4, because it does use alot of CPU and is kind of slow at hashing your share files. If you only share a few files it appears to be more stable. Other than that it is pretty good.

What I really like is that StreamCast claims that Morpheus is the only P2P-Application ruled legal by US Court ...
Well, there is one problem with US Courts: once one thing ruled legal, all other similar cases will be ruled the same way. Here it would be for every decentral client available. So that actually not only Morph is ruled legit :)
And the government till now didnt ask others about their legality.

The NEonet in 4.5 is worth using.

too many adwares-spywares, everybody can use better freware clients like shareaza

This program has a rich amount of content on the network, and with the addition of NEOnet, it has greatly been improved.

It's ok, but the spyware and adware are a pain.
