First, Limewire is not illegal to download. It`s just p2p program.
Second, all of the songs are not stored in a main host, its shared between the users. If you are downloading song, you are not downloading from the limewire server, you are doing it from users that accepted to share that song.
For that, the LimeWire software is legal but it is illegal for the individuals to share copyrighted material such as music, videos and software. LimeWire should only be used for sharing the material that you have created yourself as stated in the LimeWire user agreement....
The Program, like all peer-to-peer ("P2P") programs, is capable of being used to share materials that the copyright owner has not authorized be shared. It is unlawful to use the Program to infringe the intellectual property rights of others, or to share, distribute or download others' protected, proprietary and/or confidential information without authorization

Get songs on to windows media player from internet?
If you want free songs go into google and type intitle:"index.of" (mp3) songname You can do (mp4) or (avi) or whatever. If you are willing to pay (which I highly suggest, as I think the free method is illegal) just search for music to download off the web. There is also a illegal thing called limewire where you can download music for free but you have to download limewire's software first, and google is so much faster and the pay method even faster!!! (well not really) Hope i could help
