Default can't buy the pro version. Limewire does not accept creditcard or paypal

How can I purchase the pro version. From what I understand the basic will not let me download more than 100 songs. I would like to purchase the Pro however, when I tried it only allows certain credit cards and MASTERCARD is not one of them and they don't take PAYPAL either.

Do you have any other ideas as to how I might pay for this program?????

If they want people to buy Pro then they should be listening to potential customers!

Don't forget that there are other good (free) p2p apps that also use the Gnutella network... check out the links below for more info

FrostWire

Phex

BearShare

where do you get your info? Basic Limewire is a free program. There is no 100 songs restriction on it.

BC may be wrong about the LW Basic 100 songs/file limit but he is right about the limited selection of credit cards you can buy PRO with.

I've checked through my own credit cards and they are now all Mastercards, I know that at one time a CC could be both Visa and MC but things have now changed it seems that Visa has become a rare species.

Therefore, it's time that the LW Org should update its payment process to include a Mastercard facility.

Yes I could be wrong about the limit I thought it told me there was a limit but, I am glad there is not. That is great news thanks. However, I am right about the credit cards.

What a shame I cannot buy the Pro version. I use to have it and would love to get it again. Maybe one day they will allow Mastercard again. I sure hope so!

It is the same with me also. All I have is a MasterCard. What can we do about this because I want to buy it also. I don't want men in black suits and black limos driving in my driveway.

Buying the Pro version will not protect you from that.
(And I don't think they arrive in limos.)

So how to everyone protect themselves? I thought with buying into something like this Pro version it would help be safe.

Somehow you seem to have mixed up buying PRO with some sort of protection from being sued, as Blackhorse said, it is no protection.

The only sure fire way to protect yourself is to buy your CDs and MP3s, not download them from other P2P users. Just remember that any MP3 you download using LW, or any other P2P app, is not owned by the company that sold you that app.

However, that said, there are a lot of other stuff that are in the public domain that you can legitimately download without "the men in black suits and limos" coming for you. All you have to do is a bit of research, on the Internet and your nearest public library, to find out what is available.
