Advantages: Very easy to use and is the fastest file sharer around

Disadvantages: lacks some features

Ever wanted to get every songs ever made with just about every video and DVD for free? well now you can with Limewire
Limewire is the f astest P2P file sharing aplication for all the types of computer files around. It is a really easy aplication to use as well , theres not much to learn about it. Its also all for free

Where to Get it From
You can get this aplication from this web site for absolutely free with no strings attached
http://www.limewire.com/English/content/home.shtm l
Once You are on the web site just click the 'Get It Now' button and you will be on your way to having absolutely free music, video and images downloaded onto your computer, there is a choice between getting the 'Get Basic' or the 'Get Pro' you should get the basic version to start of with so you can get to know how it works and so on. You wouldn't have thought it would be this easy to get just about every song ever to come out, i certainly didn't believe my friend when he said you could. But i gave it a try and it was amazing all the songs i ever wanted were just free and at a click of a button. Fantastic!!!!


Difficulty To Use
You will be suprise with this aplication it is easily the most simplistic P2P aplication i have ever seen and iv 'e seen a lot. Aplications like kazaa don't come close to how easy they make it for there fans. I know a lot of people who have a P2P and out of all the aplications you can get 90% of them own limewire. No suprise really. The layout is set out to make it easy for anyone. Theres three different tabs to click on. Everything on the whole program comes under one of these tabs. The Tabs are
'search'
'monitor'
and 'library'
This shows how easy they make it, these tab titles tell you exactly what are on it. So if you wanted to look on your library you would obviously go on the 'library' tab. If you want to put your songs onto a mp3 the mp3 files you download of limewire will instantly transfer onto windows media player so then you can just 'synchronies' the files to your mp3. Easy.


Value For Money
This aplication is obviously great value for money as it is absolutely free. Anything for free is worth a try, and this is definitely worth a try. More than a try your life will get taken over by limewire you will be making endless downloads of your favorite band or your best videos. You can get Limewire Pro for $18.88 this is the main way limewire makes money as there are no advertisements on the software unlike P2P's like kazaa which are flooded with them. They can get quite anoying. Limewire is free of adverting. Which is another reason why this is great. I would advise you to buy the basic version first no matter what so you get a sense of this software then the question is up to you should i get pro or not?


Other Versions
The other version of limewire is Limewire pro in which you have pay $18.88. If you want my opinion don't buy it! There is next to no difference on the better version. You expect extra fast download speeds i would say it is the same speed as basic. The pro version has more features like new skins to give if a different look every now and again. But there isn't really any new features on the pro version that make you want to buy it. It is basically the same piece of software but its there way of making money and they have to do that somehow. One good thing about Limewire Pro is that there are more searches for things to download, theres more on offer. Which is helpful. I would buy Pro if i was you though definitely not worth the money when you can get the same thing for free. But if you like limewire enough and you dont mind paying money then yeah it is worth it.

Downsides
Erm... Downsides to this software...Well the biggest one has got to be Virus. Limewire is full of virus's and can mess your computer up if you don't be careful, but if you got an anti virus theres nothing to worry about. The anti virus will find and locate the virus and simply delete it. Then again some people don't get virus's of it. It is unlikely you will get some and if you do you will be very unlucky. If you ever do make sure you get rid of them before its too late. Another downside might be lack of features. This software, unlike most software of this kind doesn't have its own video player so when ever you download a video and you play it, it will just open in windows media player and start playing. Any other downsides erm.. I don't think so. Its got to be a good piece of sotware with such little downsides.

Good Features
Good features on this software. Well theres plenty to keep you feesting on. For one theres a nice little feature where you can see exactly what other people have been searching and if its to your satisfaction you can click on it and all the searches will come up as if you typed it in yourself. It show you what people are downloading of you which is interesting. But the best two features on this software by far are the speed and the fact it is free. The speed of the downloads are unbelievably fast. Songs can download up to as quick as 30 seconds on a good computer. Videos will take more time but can be worth the wait if its a good watch. It would be fast as its the fastest piece of software of this kind, the next fastest are probably kazaa and imesh but these are not as good as limewire.

Competitions
Limewire is in a league of its own as i said the next best are probably kazaa and imesh they both have there avantages and disadvantages. Limewire is fastest, has the best searches, is the easiest to use, have no anoying advertisement, transfer mp3 and videos straight to windows media player, you can see what others are searching, and its completely free. So this is the best and if you are going to download one download this.

Personal Thoughts
I love this aplication, it is quality where else could you get free download of music and videos. You would normally be expected to pay for this stuff. In my opinion why not get this piece of software, whats their to lose. You will have a libray full of songs before you know it. This is definitely the P2P sharing software around and that is why iv 'e got it. So download this and try it out and if you like it enough its worth looking into buying the Limewire Pro version. I still can't believe how easy and how available all the downloads are.

What You Can Download
You can download just about anything. Every song which has ever been released and the range of videos is fantastic. I have downloaded many many films of this and are very good quality and for all you film fans its your chance to watch films for free and sometimes before they have been released. I downloaded the new oasis album two months before it came out, it was great i couldn't believe it. I bet i was one of the first people to listen to the full album. You can also download documents which are word files e.g. How to.... booklets and so on. And also you can download images. Their is a massive range of images on show, just type in what you want download it and you've got it. One of the best things for images are that you can geta picture of a album front cover then print it out and burn your songs onto a cd and there you have a full album with the front cover. Its easy to make

How It Works
P2P sharing sounds complicated but really its not in the slightest. All it is other people sharing their files with other people the more users the application has the more files and a better range of files you will get and thats about it. If you want to see if anyone is taking your downloads just look at the uploads page on the software.

Is It Legal?
Legal or not. Its not our fault as it shouldn't be published on a web site if anything they should get sued. But anyway it is legal as all you are doing is sharing files with other people. So don't worry about it being legal or not theres no problem with it and after all many, many people have Limewire so your not the only one

Summary
Simple, if you are going to download a P2P Sharing software get Limewire
