Default Liscencing for Limewire

When i got LW a few months ago, I paid around $20 to get it under the impression that I was getting a 1 year liscence to D/L music without risk of legal action. Was this a scam? I can't find and evidence or record of any such thing anymore. Are there folks using LW open source policy to sell it under this type of false advertising?

LimeWire PRO is a P2P program for use only in the exchange of authorized files.

Please do not purchase LimeWire PRO if you intend to use it to infringe copyright.
This is from the LW Pro download page. You have to click that you agree to not d/l copyright material to procede with the d/l.

You probably got yours from a scam site. LW basic is free and pro costs $18.88USD. The official site is here: http://www.limewire.com/english/content/download.shtml

There are a lot of scam sites out there. You should try to get your money back and consider cancelling you credit card because now they have your billing info you don't know what they will do with it.
