Default So I just started using Lime wire...
WARNING: Uber noob question coming up:

So when seeing the songs after searching for them what do the numbers in the 2nd column mean. For instance in the first column there is a star rating for the quality of the download but what do the numbers in the next column mean? And is it good or bad to download a song with a larger number?

dont know if you already have understanding but the number is the number of computers with that file that you connected to.

no, its the number of users who have that file...you are NOT connected to them most likely (unless one of them just happens to be a UP you are attached to)...keep trying alhaxit, maybe you'll give a piece of decent advice on of these days (or months....or years...)
