hmmm ?
I thought Limewire died shortly after the old Napster "died".
Tbfh i didn´t even know the prog still existed [surrender]

Thank God. It's nothing but a mess of viruses and spyware anyway. First two questions I ask when someone wants me to look at their PC are, "Do you have teenagers?" and if that is a yes, "Do they use Limewire?"

Less work for everyone who fixes PCs though [no]

Doubt it. With limewire out of the picture they will just move on to the next thing. I'm sure there will be loads of fake file sharing apps with hidden spyware too claiming to be a working limewire that will trick tons of people.

But... where will pedophiles share child porn now?

Oh wait, 4chan, nvm.

*hugs old outdated version*

I'll never let you go!

However since I setup an iTunes account I rarely find myself using that junk anyway.

I haven't used Limewire since uhhh...2002?

My uhh..."efforts" have evolved. [yawn]

Well, I admit to an occasional visit to 4chan, and from what I have seen, with the occasional short lived exception, that kind of porn really doesn't show up over there.

However, I am not saddened in the least about limewire being gone. But I disagree in the manner it is leaving. Limewire is simply a tool that facilitiates. It doesn't force peoples hands into downloading illegal stuff. There is an equivalency to holding a gun maker responsible if someone uses their gun to commit murder.

Spotify, Grooveshark, LastFM, Pandora, Youtube?

or good old fashioned torrents and newsgroups

Add RapidShare, Hot Files and megaupload too.

Both YouTube and Grooveshark is legal though or?

Napster was where it was at. Kid in a candy store, kid in a candy store...

Now I'm too legit to quit.

soulseek is where its at for music

[Pheddytrourry]

What about Frostwire?

[Rnlvifov]

Both YouTube and Grooveshark is legal though or?

Yep, as are Spotify, LastFM & Pandora.

It's actually just as easy to get music for free legitimately as it is to pirate it now

I don't know in a way Napster is better now than it was back then. People like to make a big deal out of Naspter and for it's time it was great but it was still lacking. I had real trouble finding albums from bands I would still consider mainstream. All I could ever find was single tracks of their popular singles. You might have to pay these days but for the 5 bucks a month service since you get 5 tracks you get to stream their entire catalog for free.
