I would also like to get more shows circulating. I have over 100 personally recorded shows at 128 kbps and they are rather large (about 113 MB). I don't have the patience to cut out the commercials in Goldwave or downsample but I like sharing them nonetheless. Kazaa seems to be better than WinMX at the moment as far as popularity goes. However, Bit Torrent looks promising as another P2P option. Anyone interested should check out http://bitconjurer.org/BitTorrent/ and http://www.dessent.net/btfaq/
. Basically you need a web site that has links with .torrent files (which are very small) and people download these and simultaneously share the file with others who are downloading the same file. It is a little more complex than Kazaa and WinMX initially but it might be worth a try. Whatever file swapping method is used, I think it's best to use only one or two so bandwidth isn't spread thin.
