LimeWire Given Two Weeks To Decide Future Operations
June 11, 2010 07:42:00 AM CDT   |   by Edwin Ortiz

With LimeWire backed into a proverbial corner after being found guilty of copyright infringement last month, a judge recently gave the peer-to-peer file sharing company two weeks of reprieve to the decide the future of its business operations.

Though the current position of the case is leaning toward a closure of LimeWire and its services, the company believes more time is necessary in order to properly plan. “We feel a permanent injunction is not the best course of action. It could hold back the creation of new digita-music technologies that LimeWire
 is in the process of developing, and [it] does not benefit the industry as a whole.”

If rewarded, The RIAA estimates monetary damages to top over a billion dollars.

Why does LimeWire even exist? Torrents are 100x better.

Exactly

I usually type something like "Eminem Recovery rapidshare" and that works 99% of the time.  Google blog search works well too. 
That's how I'll get my tv shows too most of the time, I'll search "Entourage season 7 720p download".  Even easier and faster than torrents.

except rapidshare fails.

Searching on Demonoid/Isohunt is the easiest but when it's not there I use google blog search

I'm not the biggest fan of rapidshare but it's the most popular hosting site, so I have to use it. 

Torrents are fine for small downloads like albums and SDTV shows but it's pretty bullshit for high definition movies and television.  I use megashares and rapidshare.  Torrents are too slow and unreliable for a 8GB movie.

Maybe the most popular but the uploads will be deleted quikly I believe plus the servers are always overloaded.
