Hi people
I've copied a transcript from my correspondence with Scour Inc. (online
file sharing system) and their explanation of why they don't have a Linux
client:

PS: I hope this is relevant to the list. Please excuse me if it doesn't. I
has to amuse myself.

My Post to that reply:

It that the way your Windows client look like too?
A command line tool is not exactly what I had in mind.
I meat more like a graphical client written by Scour Inc., or a
fully-functional graphical client written by someone else.
For example, I use a client called 'gnapster' to connect to Napster
servers, and it offers me all the features I'm looking for (or maybe not,
but I'm satisfied, and I've never seen the Windows Napster client so I
don't exactly know if I'm missing anything).
BTW-I've never seen the Scour Windows client either (I just checked out
your very cool website and looked for a way to connect to the system).

Thanks
Isaac Aaron

No.  There are screen shots of the Windows client on sx.scour.com.

Console tools are the linux way!  Others are working on QT and GTK based
clients.  You can track development on the opendev mailing list (linked
from the Open Development page).
