Guess I will not be using Limewire. I want to be Legal.

The issue is no Limewire, the issue is using it to download copyrighted music without permission of the copyright holder.

There are plenty of legitimate uses for P2P apps like Limewire. Your actions only become illegal when you download or share copyrighted materials. If you are unsure whether or not you should be sharing a file, you probably shouldn't. Message Edited by DELL-Aaron on 10-03-2006 09:37 AM
