I'm on my iPhone... Is there something wrong?

i heart limewire

It should have kicked the bucket a long time ago. I hate limewire. Everything that comes out of it has some worm or trojan in it, and if you try to download porn, you never know what you are truly going to get. No thanks :)

Who dl porn off limewire lol?

Remember the www. for the link to become linkable :winkwink:


@the thread, I dont like torrent sites yet I do use youtube :(

Got an email from them earlier today.

They were great for viral marketing for a while.

yeah, your link points to ******* :(

No big deal... you can always switch to something else

here's a useful list of popular file sharing software

I thought it died 7 years ago. I'm not even kidding.

yeah amazingly people still use it

My grandma would laugh at me if I used Limewire.

is bearshare still out there ?

The content rules for LimeWire, Napster and Kazaa are interesting. However, I think that nothing is being done to stop full length music videos from being posted on https://youtube.com. On a good note, Youtube videos don't have trojans or viruses.

Limewire was for people who didn't understand torrents.

:1orglaugh

WTF is wrong with some of you? I don't get people that bitch about tubes and people freeloading porn, using torrents and shit like limewire to get free mainstream content.

I can find anything - movie, software, porn, music - on Rapidshare in 5 minutes tops. It's truly amazing. This weekend, I felt like watching some old Gunsmoke - the old black and white ones from the early 60's. Took me about 4 minutes to find seasons 4 and 5 for download. Had me a Gunsmoke Sunday, Mr. Dillon. Now that was good televison. Try to find the first one that ever had Festus. It's called "Us Hagens" and it is awesome. Festus was just some dude Matt ran into while trying to bring in an outlaw relative. He was so good that when Chester decided to leave, they brought back the Festus character.

But if you report those links to RapidShare they will take them down. Some of the other file sharing sites will just ignore you.

Yea good one RIAA, too bad no one's used Limewire to download music since 2003?

Rapidshare is better for rare stuff. Oddball albums, old television shows, and rare old flicks. Once it's up you don't have to worry about anybody sharing it to get it. I grab a lot of music and oldschool movies from RS. For newer stuff that everybody wants/has torrents are the way to go though.

Seems to me that this is yet another win for the people who produce things and another blow to the thieves. Doesn't matter if thieves on GFY think that Limewire isn't used anymore because you all steal your shit from other sites...fact is it's another precedent being sent. I hope that everyone of you who steal anything get what's coming to you.

good night nurse

Well said man :2 cents:

So Limewire went legit - that means the certain end of it.
Happened to mininova as well.

Back in the day when you could make a browser-window popup with a wmv-video I made some good money using Limewire.

Thank you Limewire, RIP.
