P2P programs work where users can make their files viewable and downloadable to other users. Any folder that is viewable will have downloadable contents inside. The amount of people logged on to the network with sharable files will determine the amount of hits you receive for a searched file.
The more people that are logged on at one time and are sharing, the more hits you will receive for your search results.

Do not accidentally download a virus in an unknown file extension; familiarize yourself with the popular music extensions.It is common for people to create a virus named as a popular song that may contain a virus or other threatening file, just check the file size and extension and you should be ok.
