I purchased it 2/18/09. I logged into it from the basic limewire that was downloaded on my computer. I paid like $30 for it, it was for a lifetime membership. I bought it through my paypal account. The 1st time I purchased it, about a year ago, it did download but I wasn't able to get tech suppost because it didn't recognize my email address. I have 2 different emails & have tried both but neither work.
