RIAA going postal, affecting LW?
So,
I just heard RIAA made a new law or something that made the manufactures responsible for the actions of the ones that uses their program and it had lead to popular p2p-sites have closed down. Is LimeWire going to be affected by this?

Are you referring to the Grockster case or are you referring to something rather newer?

LW can be sued. They will try to avoid that by not allowing shaing of unlicensed files (99,99% of files, even 90% of legal files don't have a lisence). That means that the next version of LW will kill LW itself because nothing will be available (you can look into the new code at limewire.org). Really sad. Whenever LW realeases a new update, DON'T UPGRADE! Or switch to another P2P client.
There will be LW forks... But LW is dead. Dead. BS is dead and now LW, Gnutella will suffer a lot in the next year  .....
