Wife says that I will get arrested with Limewire

[forjonny]

My wife keeps telling me that I am doing something illegal and that some day I will have someone knocking on my door using Limewire. Is this true? I don't want to be doing something that I am going to get in trouble for.

I use music to practice my piano and guitar with and do not sell or trade or give away music to others.

So what is up with all this?

It depends on where you live, what you download, what you share and lots of other things Use the search (top right, between faq and home). This topic has been addressed a million times before & you can look through old threads to give you more of an idea.

LOL. Love the topic title.


If you haven't been arrested yet, chances are you wont be
unless you are sharing over 1000+ files. The RIAA is only interested in filing lawsuits against music shares, the MPAA is only interested in their movies & the FBI is only interested in arresting those that dl childporn, if you share very, very large amounts of files then run for the hills.

You downloaded and installed Limewire to steal files from the Network and everyone knows what Limewire and other P2P apps are used for. Just enjoy the app.

In otherwords, dont worry about it.

So I may not get into trouble but Limewire may itself?

What about all those people that got in trouble with Napster and got fines?
