Default I am confused

Excuse me for being a newbie, I just paid for Limewire Pro for the sole purpose in seeing how it works on Linux since my wife is ready to move from windows, need I explain More! Anyway, she has 360sharepro which is offered on the same site as Limewire Pro. Here are her concerns as well as mine.
  1. With her Sharepro she rarely if any recieves this annoying pop up that states it can't find a lincense, proceed anyway? On occassion sharepro does say something but very rarely.
  2. Limewire Pro asks this for pracically every song
  3. It was suggested on this forum to disable the pop up, does this not go against the License agreement? I.E. copywrite.
  4. Sharepro and LimeWire are very similar in format, design etc. although one is for Windows and the other is for Linux. Why the difference in the License agreement?

I guess what I am trying to get here is, My wife doesn't care about the system she is on as long as she can do her music thing, but she has shown me signs of concern on the License thing. I have been testing LimeWire Pro, and it does run great, alot of music can be found, but I agree with her, the License thing does concern me too, reading all the stories and all.

Why did I pay for this.....One, I believe in GPU and donating, plus I wanted to see if Pro was much differnent from basic. The only similarity is that License thing.
