There are many situations where traditional P2P is better than BitTorrent (which is, technically,. another P2P netowrk but we all know what you meant). For instance, try downloading the song Tarzan Boy by
Baltimora.

While you may be open to many of the same risks when downloading torrents - you'll be on the safer side if you use reputable sites to locate the torrents and download only after you've read several good comments on the particular torrent.

He'll also be safer if he uses a reputable P2P client.
Personally, I use
KCeasy. It's a
giFT client. That means that it uses a set of independent plugins to access various P2P networks, simultaneously. I have plugins for
Ares,
Gnutella,
OpenFT and
OpenFT networks.
