On the ACTUAL topic now.... On the ACTUAL topic now....
I don't support removing the upload modification controls from the free version for many reasons.
1) It wont help. ISPs like mine already restrict upload as they choose. Limewire settings will not give bandwidth that has already been choked.
2) It will discourage users from wanting to use limewire since there would then realize less options for them to control, while other competitors' client software can give it to them for free already.
3) It would sully the Limewire reputation to some degree, giving technical and filesharing forums, as well as opponents, an additional reason to gripe about Limewire, perhaps causing it trouble in reviews or popularity, which would likely lead to negative opinions, and less sales of PRO for the actual company. (They would want to be seen as 'good guys' since there are so many choices in this market already. I believe a lot of their sales come off of reputation and users loving the free version first.)

Feel free to disagree... These are just my initial thoughts on the topic. But I admire anyone who takes the time and thought to share their opinion of a new feature, such has been done here. Because thats how we end up with many good and new ideas that actually can become reality. So Thanks for being willing to make a suggestion. |
