Quit Using Limewire You Idiots



I mean that in the nicest way.
Instead, you should use Frostwire.
It's the open source version of Lime Wire Pro, it's free, it never whines about paying to "upgrade" and it's better than ever now.
Features include:

Completely Free & open-source

Firewall-to-firewall transfers

Turbo-Charged Download Speeds

Absolutely NO Spyware or Adware

Connects to more sources

Creative Commons license support

Max. speed network connections

Junk Result Filters

Community Chat Rooms

iTunes Integration

BitTorrent Support

Proxy Support


The .torrent support is a brilliant catch because I can use one app to handle all of my downloads. Combine that with it being cross-platform (that just means it runs on any computer) and you can't beat it. As Courtney and Nikki say: "Get it ahhh..."

Torrents anyone?

For those of you that are using OS X and don't know how to download .torrent files, here's a basic tutorial. First of all, you need torrent client software. I recommend Azureus. After you download and install Azureus, you should add the Pirate Bay search engine to your Firefox browser. Then you simply do a search for the file you are legally allowed to download because you already own it. When you find the desired file, Firefox will ask you to pick a default action to choose when handling .torrent files. Go ahead and select "Always open with Azureus." And then wait. A long time. But it's sooooo worth it.
