Sharman have really taken their time on releasing the long waited ad-free version. Until the launch of an Ad-free version, users had to rely on unofficial 'hacked' versions to make use of Kazaa without cluttering up the computer with unwanted adware software. Kazaa-lite is an unofficial version of Kazaa which is stripped of its adware and advertisments and contains many features of the plus version. It will be interesting to see if many will be willing to pay out for the official Kazaa Plus version. 😉
Kazaa Plus is
available globally for US $ 29.95. The Certified version is available for purchase from AOD's www.kazaaplus.com or CNET's www.download.com.
