if the big 4 sign up.. music tracks will be replaced with legit links.. we wont be able to search for tracks that are also for sale.. meaning only rare, older music will be available for free. but also big 4 can monitor files being transfered on their store. this will be a win for both users and studio's. we wanted cheap music. they can offer it. what better way than to add it in to a program almost everyone you know has.. all we want is a cheap easy way to download tracks.. but they also don't want tracks being shared if only one user purchases it.. but it can also save server bandwidth.. so there are lots of pro's and cons.. they figure if u can't beat them join them.. but will the largest file sharing program be changed forever?

It wont ever Work if the Big 4 sign-up with this the song price will go from .99 to a $1.50 or worse, and it will be DRMed.

but really now lets ask your self Free or .99 which would you choose.

Ok i find this funny..

Limewire and Frostwire both have legal music for download..

Drawback!!!

They both contain illegal music..

So why pay 27 cents per song when you could download it for nothing..

What a waste all your trying to do is please the riaa and mpaa you are a moron.

Crimewire blows. This is just a way to 'pretend' to be legit. Frostwire is a clone.o_0

Going pirate? No way to protect yourself from the **AA's. At least with eMule/aMule you can load up a block list to block the snoops, or some of them.

People do use the Crimewire still. Mostly newbies who don't know a Torrent from a ahem.

You got that right! You can see how stupid the big 4 are. They would rather have their music shared for free than get money from Lime Wire. They are just a bunch of cry babies!
