What's the cost?
 

Can anyone tell me why I had to pay $34.00 to sign up for this service when you can download Limewire almost anywhere for free?

Well, you went to a scamsite and gave them your cardnumber.
Sadly you're not the first victim, you could try to get a refund, but if you read their disclaimer, you probably paid for their help to get you links to download free software.
