Default File Sharing and Music industries suits

I heard today that the music industry has just sued and settled out of court against audiogalaxy and its file sharing software. Makes me wonder what the future holds for Limewire. I have heard it stated, it would be hard to sue against the guntella network because its annonymous, however, how many guntella clients are there? The music industry may not be able to sue the network, but surely they can sue the companies that make gateway products like limewire, in effect keeping us from accessing the network. What does everyone think about the possibility of Limewire getting sued (the best client software out there as far as I can tell) and if Limewire is shutdown, where would we go for file sharing?
