I got a surprize when I read LordOfTheRings scammerpage.
I have fallen for it as well.
About 1 1/2 years ago I joined thedownloadplace.com paying 29.95 for their downloadapplication. I discovered LimeWire after that and slowly stopped using it. but in their defence I found music on there that I couldn't find on LimeWire, it was just alot slower than LimeWire.
LimeWire has come a long way since then I think
