The concept is similar, but I don't think the community digs the idea of having to upload their entire library to a server (or even portions of it)... Having a p2p client makes it extremely efficient and hassle-free.

Freebase I can't get into my routers config page cuz it requires a password and username. Any help?

Soulseek isn't illegal. p2p clients, in and of themselves, aren't illegal. The only thing that's illegal is distributing copyrighted material, which is at the user's discretion. Will someone notice if you do that? No. The connection is between the person sharing, and the person downloading. There's nowhere near the transparency that exists in torrents, where you're downloading from multiple sources, any of which could (and usually are) be honey-pots that exist to log the IP of everyone who downloads illegally. You're taking more risk by downloading a file from a media upload site, as all those logs are stored on a central server. This is completely different, and there is no server for the transaction. It's just you, and a friend, transferring a file over the internet. The only thing that can possibly happen, is Soulseek gets shut down for "suspicion" of aiding in illegal activity, which hasn't happened in all the years they've been running.
As far as your user name and password, you might be able to reset it by using the reset button that should be located somewhere on the unit... or by unplugging the unit for a while. Mainly you want to get it to its factory defaults. The username for routers is usually ADMIN. There is usually no password by default. Try that. If it's not working, simply look at the make and model of your router and google how to reset it to its defaults, and what the default username/password is. The info is most definitely available.

I like the idea a lot, but I remember having problems using Soulseek and uTorrent at the same time. So I'm not sure if I want it to keep running.
Wouldn't it be a nicer idea (just a thought) to have a shared webfolder of some sort, to which people can upload tracks they think are great? Just a thought.

Too much work for most people, and would take too long to upload large amounts of material. Most people don't have amazing upload bandwidth. p2p clients make it extremely easy, quick, and allows for more options.
As for why you would use Soulseek and uTorrent simultaneously, I dunno. I don't think everyone else would be.
