Court Orders Limewire To Cease File Sharing Business
Computerworld - In a major victory for the music industry, a New York federal judge has ordered embattled P2P software maker LimeWire to immediately and permanently stop distributing and supporting its file-sharing software.

In a 17-page injunction (PDF document) issued on Tuesday, Judge Kimba Wood of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York ordered LimeWire to cease the searching, downloading, uploading, file trading and file distribution functionality of LimeWire's P2P file-sharing software.

Limewire? *Blink* Was that still around?
As his vision slowly cleared, the traveler came to the startling realization that he had been sitting by the side of the road, repeatedly hitting himself in the head with his walking staff. He had in fact been doing this for a quarter of a century.

Shaking his head at his own folly, he dusted himself off, set his gaze upon the road up the mountain and once more set off upon his journey.

Re: Court Orders Limewire To Cease File Sharing Business
My husband knows absolutely nothing about computers, but he loves old music. So, we taught him how to download from Limewire. Everything else was too expensive or too complicated for him. We now have a two-year old HP dual core computer that is nothing more than a boat anchor because of him and Limewire. It has about 11 gigs of music files on it and we cannot get them off the hard drive.

That's my Limewire story.

Re: Court Orders Limewire To Cease File Sharing Business
The statement noted that the court is scheduled to conduct a trial in January to determine the extent of the damages that LimeWire should be held liable for to compensate for the "billions and billions" of illegal music downloads through LimeWire.

How the fuck is it illegal?
Its not different that listening to someone elses cd you borrowed.
If it was illegal there would be a criminal case this is a CIVIL case.

Use Flash drives to back up the files. They have some that have up to a 32 Gig capacity.

If your computer's two years old, it definitely has a USB port, most likely USB 2.0 or above which means faster transfer times.

Just make multiple backups using multiple flash sticks for redundancy.

Yeah but what im saying is.
This was district court.
The supreme court over rules district court.
So this judge is obviously corrupt, and has chosen something legitimate to be shut down when its boss has ruled it as legitimate.
There is so much mention in this article about it being 'illegal' and breaking the 'law' when clearly this is not true.
If something is illegal you don't have to sue someone the police charge them with a crime.

Its amazing how most noobs think limewire is 'old' and 'shit'.
When you can download almost anything on it.
IF you know what you are doing, and its light on resources.
Only noobs get viruses.
Its good for music and even new release cam movies.
Of course torrents are better but limewire was still handy.
I have an old version of it which works fine and I get almost any song I want instantly.
