Limewire Bites The Dust

Limewire Bites The Dust - LimeWire Shut Down? Can you believe that LimeWire has been shut down? While the eyes are on the elections tonight, other people are concerned about the fact that they cannot download free music from LimeWire. This was a popular P2P file sharing system, which allowed people to essentially remotely access each other’s computer files and download music and movies.

Some people paid for a Pro edition, which cut down on the amount of SPAM and viruses that were transferred between each others computers. However, these users are out in the cold as well and there’s no indication whatsoever that they will get their money back.

Despite the ruling, many users will still continue to use FrostWire and BitTorrent to get their free music. There’s still ways to get it, it’s just harder for those who aren’t as computer savvy to figure out and find.

That being said, it’s still illegal to download music for free. When we are asked for places where you can go to get the latest music downloads, we always recommend iTunes and Amazon.com. These are virus free and legit, so there’s a decreased risk using them. In addition, if you don’t have a credit card you can go to the gas station in many areas and buy an iTunes gift card and download your music that way.

Man Hits Teen on Plane Over iPhone

Man Hits Teen on Plane Over iPhone - Police say a man on a Southwest Airlines flight from Las Vegas punched a teenager who refused to turn off his iPhone as the plane approached the Boise airport. Officers arrested 68-year-old Russell E. Miller, of Boise, on suspicion of misdemeanor battery Tuesday. He has been released from jail on bond. Witnesses told police the 15-year-old was playing games and listening to music on his cell phone when flight attendants instructed passengers to turn off their electronic devices because the plane was landing. Witnesses told police that when the teen didn't respond, Miller got angry and punched the boy in the arm. Miller says he "tapped" the teen on the shoulder after he refused to turn off the phone. He told the Idaho Statesman that he may have "overreacted," but that he did not punch the teen. Man Hits Teen on Plane Over iPhone
