LimeWire scraps plans for legal music downloads

Aww.. and not even a single comment until now. Sad.. ViralWire is done with :(

I guess they'll have to find a new way to spread viruses and kiddy porn. Not to sad to see this one go.

Use frostwire software then, same as limewire but from a different company

I assume the software still works.

You all are rather harsh. Limewire didn't make the viruses or the porn. It is the community that uses it. You can protect against viruses using common sense and maybe Sandboxie. you are not compelled to down load and watch kiddy porn. I know several persons that prefer it to torrents because they are interested in specific tunes.

I haven't use LW in a very long time. When I did I didn't get any virus. I didn't DL anything that didn't have a BR and the file size didn't roughly conform to the length x BR. A few years back there was a member that used to share bot net apps with an mp3 file extension. As she said only a moron would have DLed something way too big to be a tune with no br or time posted. She was trolling for total morons which are gold in her business.

I just get angry when people blame in animate objects for what someone uses them for. I feel the same way about guns. Guns don't kill people people kill people.

its not just limewire its the internet in general.I swear for every person that uploads a malware free file theres a few hundred people thats are looking at ways to infect that file and distribute the infection.There should be a law that anyone that intentionally uploads any form of malware should be jailed or at least have to replace all the data lost or damaged from it.
