Because Allcoolmusic are "users". They don't own or did they create Limewire (LW). But they sell the FREE version at almost double the price of the pro version. And they send their members here for help. Help they didn't pay for. Since when did Allcoolmusic give me any money or rewards for helping on the forum? It's the equivalent of me selling copied CD's. ie: making money out of something I don't own the copyright to, or perform on. I'm sure they would sell non-existent insurance or drugs if they couldn't think of anything else to sell. The LW organisation don't get a cent of money from Allcoolmusic. Yet the LW org. develops the program. Businesses like ACM are leeches IMO. Excuse the strong words, but I despise what they have done to cheat so many people out of their money for something they could have got for free anyway. At no time on their website do they say, look go to the official site & you can get it for free. What they do is mislead people. And they trick them by advertising with unlimited downlds, all the movies, games & music you want, lifetime memberships, etc. Lifetime membership to the free version of LW. No, con artists are not my type of people.
