Althought I wouldn't recommend buying one anyway. I don't like them much.
(Right, this is why I gave up p2p programs. I have better methods of acquiring music now.) |

 Wow, i dont know whats going on... Group: Member Posts: 1,439 Joined: Apr 2004 Member No: 10,977 |
What the others said. First off, DON'T BE SCARED THAT THE COMPANY IS BEING SUED. You're not going to get caught. Unless you are distributing the files yourselves by ripping and cracking, nothing will happen. Or unless you are a MAD downlaader.
2nd, Bearshare is not safer, nor is it any worse. You will find the exact same files on bearshare as you do on Limewire. Because they are bothing on the Gnutella network. Lastly, the companies sueing aren't going to win. Limeiwre, is open source. EXCEPT, for the pro version. Most likely, they are gonna end up having to pay fines. They also warn people not to download anything illegally on their sites. It's not their fault that people are pirating and downloading crap illegally. They put up their legal disclaimer. |

Ive been a pirate ever since i got internet and i wont stop. Its just my way of getting music, movies and tv shows i want to listen to and watch when i feel like it. But if limewire gets shut down im going to have to look for a new program >.> damnit. And if you value your computer i suggest not using bearshare.

I stopped using limewire after like the 6th grade. It scared me enough with the spyware and it lagged my computer, which I had for 6 years.
I can hardly ever find anything on bearshare because I mainly listen to foreign music. But when I do, I only go like 10 - 15KBS. So now, it's all about torrents. Full, clear albums with high res album covers in seconds. Makes it easier to import organized songs onto my Ipod and I go like 150 - 300KBS |

People use p2p software, still? That's old school, there are far better ways.
