Limewire is dead !

I'm curious to know what people use for file sharing these days too.

Since 16 when I started having part time jobs and then later full time jobs in between uni I've not pirated much at all.
The big things that made me want to pirate such as having to deal with physical media and DRM are all gone; I can just store my card details with a company like Apple's iTunes or Steam and download the purchase instantly to my HD with one click, so much easier than torrenting/p2p. :)
 
I've never used Lamewire anyway, always seemed to return hardly any results and you couldn't preview them. I used to use Shareaza, but I don't use either these days.
 
Moved on these days, but sad all the same

Noooo :(.


Limewire was my second step into the P2P world. Weirdly enough, given that KaZaA was my first, it was the first one I got a virus from :D.

Think I might still have Limewire on one of the old PCs here.

Click to expand...

I'd rather give my money to a druggy than a company like Apple...

But anyway, most people use Torrents these days, and while not totally safe, they're safer than crud like Limewire. As the sites the torrents are on often have commenting systems so you can often see if it's safe before download.
I doubt the RIAA would ever be able to shut down every torrent site either, they dont host any of the files, and theres literally thousands of these sites, for every one they close another 10 pops up.
