One starts with L & the other with F

One has 8 letters & the other 9.

There's a story behind the beginning of FrostWire. It as feared LW would sell out like BearShare did during the court cases. It has not happened yet. So initially FW started out as a clone. And whilst it is pretty much the same, FW has added a different type of chat & some other things. Not all I'd particularly agree with IMHO. eg: Attempting to undermine LW Pro, despite they get most of their code from the LW.org. But there's also a few limitations with FW compared with LW Basic. Not sure why. Perhaps to save themselves time programming. FW's best programmer left them unfortunately & another joined the LW programming team.
