Hello, I've looked up Limewire and everything I've read says it's legal. But I still can't help but wonder...
So does anyone know if it really is legal? Because I want to download it, I just don't know if I'll get in trouble for it.

But the thing is .. millions of people use it everyday, so you won`t get in trouble. I`ve had it for quite awhile. So go ahead and download it !

b/c if you do think about it, you're not buying from the artist, you're downloading from the internet, you're not even PAYING for it. I personnally wouldn't download it, b/c not onnly is it illegal it gives you a buttload of viruses! trust me, i know! :) [ orphans's advice column | Ask orphans A Question ]

SoInToYoUx0x answered Saturday January 14 2006, 8:43 pm: honestly it is legal but if you sell the music it is ilegal you are allowed to have music on your computer. they cant expect people to have a computer with music on it. a little warning abotu limewire.( i have it and love it) but if you dont have a firewall it will mess up your computer.
