LimeWire & the Gnutella network were never designed for downloading copyright material. If that's the impression the media give then that's their opinion only. It's a user population problem re: sharing copyright material. Quality of Content on the Network (click on link). What do you think it's ok to download something for free that the music stores are asking you to pay for? To share music is a concept as I mentioned earlier in my 1st post. I'm sure you have many brothers & sisters out there.
