BearShare is a popular Gnutella-based file sharing application created by Free Peers, Inc. It runs under Microsoft Windows and comes in several versions, including an advertising supported version, a paid "Pro" version with no advertisements, and a Lite (stripped down) free version.
Alongside Morpheus & LimeWire, Bearshare was seen as one of the forerunning Gnutella applications due to its wide implementation of Gnutella Developers Forum (GDF) proposals and stable networking.
Following the June 27, 2005 United States Supreme Court Decision on the MGM Studios, Inc. v. Grokster, Ltd. case the BearShare support forums were closed. Most of the forum regulars went across to the Technutopia forum pages where support is available for BearShare.
On May 4, 2006, Free Peers agreed to pay $30 million in a settlement with the RIAA and transfer all their Bearshare-related assets to iMesh.
