It is difficult to provide an exact number, as the prosecution of Limewire users would depend on factors such as the jurisdiction and specific circumstances of the case. However, LimeWire itself faced legal challenges for copyright infringement and was shut down in 2010 after a court ruling. Individual users who shared copyrighted content could potentially face legal action from copyright holders.

Has anyone been prosecuted for using LimeWire?

It is not illegal for anyone to use Limewire. It is simply illegal to download copyrighted files on Limewire, and the only people who may be charged for this is the original downloader. When other Limewire users download the existing file, it is simply called "file sharing," and it is most definetly not illegal. Soooo....no, no one has been prosecuted for using Limewire-just for downloading coyrighted files on to Limewire. If you aren't copyrighting anything, you have not broken the law, and have simply participated in file sharing.
