I am expieriencing the same problem. I have used different search engines, such as gnottela, but I was having a lot of problems with that and so I searched to limewire. I had never before had the music skip so incessantly. when i use the playlist provided by limewire I can barely hear the music and the comp freezes or is real jumpy, I have DSL and a pretty fast modem, I don't know what is going on.
But as one of you mentioned before I have had the same expierience with music match. This program never seems to skip and if it does it is only once or twice.
If anyone figures out a solution or anyone who works here writes us back, that would be great.
