I did see this headline yesterday and then downloaded the 60 minutes segment using Nicotine+ which is a Soulseek client. I did look at an alternative to Limewire for linux called "Frostwire" but apparently it's now just a bittorrent client, where it used to support Gnutella in the past. And finally I did find that the internet archive of course had a torrent available which I also got for good measure.

EDIT: It was possible to get something with gtk-gnutella, but it was nowhere near as fast, nor did I get more than just one result. It may be more resiliant, but if nobody is using it..
