Is it legal to download music from the website known as "Limewire"?

it's only legal if it has a license to go with the download. the first song you click on will usually get a message that asks if you would like to download it even though limewire can't find a license for it.

Well, I haven't tried it, but Limewire is said to be a great program for finding most any music.  I don't think you'll be able to download any music without first downloading a program, regardless of what you use.

The program is legal However file sharing is not. So if you get limewire turn the file sharing off in the tools section.

Downloading free file sharing software from www.limewire.com is safe AND legal. It's what files you choose to download and what you choose to do with them that can get you into less-than-legal territory. I personally use Limewire for particular mp3 downloads, but I have run into trouble if I try downloading games and other programs like that. Do make sure you have a good updated antivirus program running, and definitely don't download anything that looks fishy. That's pretty obvious. Limewire has served me well for lots of downloads of songs. It's easy to use and almost all the songs are easy to find.

well Limewire itself isn't illegal, but people can use it to download copyrighted material illegally.  So technically they haven't done anything wrong.  It's like using a car to commit a crime - it's not the car maker's fault so they can't shut them down.

The website itself is not illegal, but some of the downloads are illegal. Such as Copywritten Movies, Music, and Software. Just stay wary of what your downloading, and be smart. :-D

Unlimiteddownloads.com is probably actually free, but it is illegal to download copywrited music/movies/etc, without express permission from the copyright owner. The way that these sites, which offer free downloads, work is they are a P2P(person to person) service which is not illegal. That is how they are able to claim that the service is legal (which it is) but downloading music(as stated above) without permission from the copyright holder, is illegal.

Limewire itself is not illegal, if used to share legal stuff.  You can't share copyrighted stuff legally without permission of the copyright holder.

The program is legal, but downloading MP3s is illegal. If you want to pay for MP3s to get them legally, I would use Napster\nhttp://www.napster.com
