Limewire has been shut down

[shakirmoledina]

something tht will NEVER die (IMO) is torrent... ppl should move towards tht and take P2P as a second choice
the only P2P i used for a long time was Ares while limewire was slow and i hardly got what i wanted

Hope usenet lives forever too.

I hatez LimeWire. There are viruses almost on every download so I use file converters and mp3 websites to download songs

 

[imz]

that's a shame, I really liked using limewire Pro. Oh well there's plenty of alternatives out there

 

[Agjsdfd]

Yeah, I just found it out.
I wanted to install limewire to download a few songs, and now I gotta look up for the songs individually on the web..

Too poor to buy them on iTunes

Usenet will live forever. It's a messaging service and not a file hosting service, even though files are hosted there. That's why when grabbing files from it they have to be decoded. It's pretty much automated now with apps like GrabIt and Newsleecher but in the old days it wasn't so easy.

Now my sister can't download her songs anymore.

It's been years since I last used it/heard of it. Am amazed that it (was) still alive and kicking.
Unless it's degraded a lot over the years, it wasn't so bad...5+ years ago. (I'd give it a fair 10 years if I could remember anything about it.)

Oh well. Anyone else get a little laugh at nutella and gnutella?

 

[Fishaman P]

LOL.

"Expected to have an unprecedented impact..."

FAIL

program was still being updated actively

 

[Dangy]

People still use Limewire? i lol'd

 

[Ethevion]

I used to use it like 6 years ago. After a few viruses I stopped.

 

[Chaz.]

I never had a virus from Limewire, if you didn't know how to use it then you got viruses. It's not hard to preview something in Limewire to check if it is real or not.

 

[BlueStar]

Oh no, where will the people of 2005 get their 50 Cent mp3s and mislabelled pornography now?

[Sausage Head]

Does this mean the complete noobs can't download their trojans anymore? Oh god noez!

 

[Zerousen]

I've never used LimeWire, but I've used BearShare, and I couldn't care less. Although, my GodFather would probably be horrified :/

 

[_Chaz_]

Sweet, now my sister won't be fucking up my PC anymore

This also means that I won't have to "fix" my cousin's PC every time I visit.

 

[Rayder]

Never used Limewire. Doesn't really bother me if they shut down.
