What a well thought post. The fact that you're 16 and have the intellect to post something like that is impressive.

I almost even feel guilty about bitching and moaning about limewire. After all, it is free (for me).

There had to be a reason limewire didn't clearly state the differences between older versions and the new one. I don't think many people would have "up"graded if that were the case (myself included).

But if it's for the greater good I'm willing to continue using the "new" version.

The ads don't seem to soak up any bandwidth (precious as that is for my 56k connection) so I can put up with them. But there should be an explanation of why it's ok to maintain only one connection when you request to maintain 3 (or any number other than 1 or 0) as long as the connection is to an "ultrapeer". I almost went to bearshare again I was so ****ed.

Now that I'm more informed, however, I think I'll leave this version of limewire on my system and pray for another timely upgrade release.
