Default need more sources!

For like 2 years, I've been downloading songs off limewire. Every once in a while I will download a song and it won't let me download it, saying over 50 hosts have been tried and then leads to say more souces. It's never been a big problem, because it's only happened for a couple of songs, but if I try to download videos it will always do this. What should I do?

I just signed up for limewire thru another site that site stated that i could download and burn unlimited cd's, it asked me to choose a software, i chose limewire, why can't i make cd's? i'm really angry at the site for stating that i could do so. I already paid so i'm kinda stuck... if anyone has any ideas or anything to help me i'd be really greatful.

You're probably seeing fake files.

If you're searching for music files, use the All Types search & search for artist or album rather than song title. Go for a file with 10 sources or less...stay away from the files with huge numbers of sources.
If you're searching for video files, always chech the file with Bitzi before download. If a file has heaps of sources but no Bitzi rating, chances are it's a fake.

Check out the threads below for more info & tips, including how to use Bitzi.
