If all LimeWire users downloaded the images from limewire.com, LimeWire Inc. would definitely go out of business. Do you know how much bandwidth that would consume? I'll show you....

8 images roughly 50,000 bytes (50KB) each. This is minimum but I believe they're bigger than that.

8 * 50,000 = 400,000 (400KB almost half a megabyte)

If you ever studied the host count at limewire.com you can tell at least ~20,000 hosts sign-on through out the day.

400,000 * 20,000 = 8,000,000,000 (8 Gigabytes)


That would mean 8 gigs of data would transfer from limewire.com daily and bandwidth is not free. They are already paying for router.limewire.com whichs gets a lot of gnutella traffic constantly from all types of clients.

I mean shutup about the ads already just pay your 6 dollars and be happy. Give something back to the community....
