Agree.

I would agree also. A client can look pretty, but it's the technology innards that are going to make it worthwhile. LimeWire already has some good technical implementations, but more low level improvements can and should be made over silly UI changes.

:-)

Greetings,

Thanks for the feedback. Like I noted I couldn't care less about themes / skins / fonts - indeed I think LimeWire is pretty handsome as far as Java apps go.
<p>
I'm glad to see support for swarming and http 1.1 which should make things better. However in the meantime Ultrapeer is leaving me with nothing. I'm getting almost no hits using it and that is just not good. Is there a roadmap (I know, "done when it's done") for what next and when? Any suggestion for improving performance / hits with *todays* clients?
<p>
Finally I'm using JRT 1.4b3 with no problems, including no cosmetic issues I've come across yet. Feels faster tho'.

Renegade is calling it quits
 

We have decided not to create further versions of renegade limewire. With limewire PRO available, creating renegade is too much like robbing programmers of their just rewards. I tried PRO over the last few days and it is sweet. Limewire has done a great job developing this program.

Our recommendations to limewire:
**Treat your users with respect. Don't cram spyware down their throats.
**Keep it open source. The community will support you as will we in our own ways.
**Keep up the good work.

Our recommendations to the RIAA and others:
**Get over it! It is a digital age. The genie of digital distribution is out.
**Enforce your copyrights without punishing programmers.
**Open source software can and will be made available by someone if not us.
**Face up to your new challenges.

We will continue to experiment, innovate and contribute.

No credit card?
 

Hello, I am back! Missed me? ("NO!") All right, then. I was wondering if there was a way to buy pro version without having a credit card... I do not (and don'want to) have one, and I imagine that this is a problem for a lot of users...
