Limewire shut down

[Stormoguden]

2. It is stealing. By the law it's illegal, explain how you can make it legal.

I would not call it stealing, becouse it once was allowed and you are not stealing anything, you are downloading copyrighted material. The problem with this is that it's so hard to get evidence on exactly who it was that downloaded the file. Anyways downloading will never stop and I find the law rather pathetic, since all these artists who can afford sueing people who downloaded, is the artists that are extremely rich already. And the most money is in live performances etc, not in selling records.

Coming to a thread infested by cake...

Always leave laughing...

He's hilarious...

But ye...

Torrents ftw. And to whomever said 'limits speed'...have u not heard of seeds? I can promise you 90% of my torrents max my net speed whereas RS/MU/HOTFILE all are filled with ads, waiting times, and shitty speeds.

Overrated much? And not allowed in USA

@iBlue, it's not exactly allowed here either, Nick (sharp) uses his friend (Siramix) to login to it every 14 days (2 weeks) to renew the ip thing or something because he's apparently "on holiday" :3

 

[iBlue]

Ahh xD. I still will stick with my torrents and apps...torrents for downloading, apps for streaming...

Music?

If you're after music use SLSK.

Still works P2P. But you can't download the client anymore and it will most likely die out anytime soon.
And to mention there will be no more updates.

You don't get virus from downloading from youtube.
And I suppose you do not care about quality of your music, since your using limewire, so just use youtube, and rip movies into mp3's.
