Los Gatos, Calif. -- For the first time, users of the Kazaa file-sharing application were outnumbered in September by users of the rival eDonkey service, which can more easily handle larger files like video, according to a report from Los Gatos, Calif.-based BayTSP, a peer-to-peer tracking firm. During September, eDonkey averaged 2.54 million users per day, while Kazaa averaged 2.48 million users. Kazaa's position as the most popular file-sharing service has waned over the past year, since the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) first began suing its users in a very public anti-piracy campaign.
