Hi Worth,

That's basically it. By paying a small fee you support the development of Limewire and avoid the ads. It is worth it to me. I hate the ad's and spyware associated with the free version and software development is time consuming and costly. The developers must be supported and I am happy to pay.

That said, I disagree with Limewires policy of forcing you to upgrade and pay again. In my personal opinion, If I buy a program it should work as purchased basically forever. Give me upgrades for six months and then let me live with what I have. Hopefully the developers will add enough features that I will want to upgrade on my own, but, after seven months or so don't say "Oh by the way your current version won't work next week. Pay again or you are out of luck".
