LimeWire To Go Legit?
Everyone knows that once a torrent site or Peer to Peer service becomes popular, the RIAA comes knocking. LimeWire has found itself in a tight spot as the RIAA knocks on its doors to the tune of $150,000 for every song downloaded from the P2P client (who’s being greedy now?) .
LimeWire’s solution to the problem is to launch an online music download center. The service will be a standalone website, and will sell DRM-free music.
What happens next? The majority of LimeWire’s users will switch to torrent clients. Some of them might even switch to FrostWire.

RIAA is complete nutters! I refuse to buy music from the major labels because of RIAAs behavior.
Still buy a from independent labels to support real artists.
Anyways, do you really think people will use Torrent for music? So hard to get “old” music on torrents.

Been using soulseek (slsk.net), but recently there has been a lot of rapidshare sites popping up.

$150,000? That is crazy! I was just about to put up my 500 cracked DRM movies site. Maybe I should wait
