Is the free version still bundled with lots of spyware? I recall having to run adaware after installing the free limewire every time to remove Gator, TipTop and the like.

Also, I don't think the free version lets you connect to ultrapeers or hides you from every search as the paid for one does. I dunno - i figure that if I pay for something, i aught to have something in return. right now I'm trying soulsearch and a couple other clients.
