Limewire, you need to catch up on your features.... Some suggestions for the big LW5
 
First, Ive been using LW for maybe 5 years now and I still think it is the best P2P program out there! But over the years, many have grown more than LimeWire, because the fixes only include the little problems that people barely knew about. Here (in my opinion) are some suggestions that would make LW 5 be even more awesome!

- Changing the header from 'LimeWire: Enabling Open Information Sharing' to 'LimeWire: The Fastest Open Information Sharing on The Planet' or something similar.
- Adding a tab for a web browser with a homepage for Limewire basic and special homepage for pro (maybe with pop-up blocker as well?)
- In Search, downloads, uploads, and library, instead of the name of the file (ex. Black Eyed Peas - Lets Get Retarded, there could be 2 headings, Title and Artist. That would make the library and search more useful.
- Search the library function
- Search more function-- instead of clearing the results and re-doing the search
- Make a Traffic tab (including Downloads/Uploads) and removing downloads from the search tab, and uploads from monitor tab.
- Remove last searches from monitor tab (who uses that anyway?)
- In monitor add 'Connections' to that and maybe Network details like # of users on the network, # of files etc.
- *IMPROVE THE PLAYER!* make it seekable, maybe a equalizer, and add a theater tab for picture and video viewing with a visualization thing
- Make playlists more usable like by removing the bottom window in library, and saving teh title of playlist to the organization window and opeinging them in the main part (similar to iTunes)
- Change the Enqueue button to Add to Playlist
- Make some features only available in Limewire PRO
- Remove 'Get limewire pro' tag at startup to basic and add a graphical LW Pro ad wher current text ads are.
- Continue to make the little changes and keep up the good work!

And to all the LW Basic users - SUPPORT THE LW TEAM AND GET LIMEWIRE PRO

Didn't LimeWire have that at one point? I think it was called LimeShop...

They just changed it from "add to playlist" to "enqueue"!

That would be the point where I fork development to create my own free LimeWire version with all the features of LimeWire PRO and more.

Or don't. - I don't either.
