Default Attention Riaa Sued Limewire!

It seems that the RIAA has sued LimeWire in federal court. This doesn't sound like good news. After the RIAA finished with BearShare everyone said that any new versions of it were sabatoged. I hope LimeWire isn't going to become sabatoged as well. And if anyone thinks I just made this up for kicks here are the many links it was reported at.

Default Support LimeWire

Don't uninstall LimeWire then the RIAA wins! Instead keep using it and show your support for LimeWire by getting everyone you know to use it. Possibly even get them to purchase PRO tell them it's for a GREAT cause.

Crap. Well, there goes the days of free music... (what's the problem anyways? I don't sell it, I don't burn it...it just stays on my hard drive. What's the problem with that? Doesn't every recording artist have enough money as it is?)
