LimeWire is completely legal. However, the purpose many people use it for is not. Downloading copyrighted music, videos, or programs without the permission of the author is illegal. This is called "copyright infringement" or "piracy."
first of all i don't believe that limewire is illegal. It's a pay by year thing and that's what makes it not illegal. since we pay then it's the people who made limewire's responsibility to pay the bands and stuff like that. we pay, we are 100% legal. if they don't pay after we pay them, than they can get in trouble. not us. also if it was illegal..loads of illegal things are created just for free music and stuff. they don't care if it's legal or not.

Well, 1st off limewire is not a website, its a server that connect to using the 'limewire client'. Frostwire does connect to the same server. As for 'legal', thatywould depend on what country you are in, and what you download.
