Nothing, in fact the study that produced the startling statistics was

As I see it Limewire is only as shady as the individuals motivations
for using it. Yes it can be used to download illegal music and the like
but it can also be used for perfectly legitimate purposes, such as
patch downloads for older software titles and the like and non

A friend of mine has been telling me how I NEED limewire lately, and
should DL immediately. It seemed a bit shady, but I DLed, and now it
