With youtube deleting almost every single song from the site, I think people are going to have to start using limewire again to download their favourite tracks. Its not really that I dont particularly like limewire its the fact that it breaks every so often and the amount of people that use it to spread viruses and just be a nuisance and spread ‘fake’ mp3’s makes it anything but a good system.
Anyone who has used limewire in the past will know the amount of hassle one goes through just to get a single semi rare track, like techno songs just realised on Beatport from limewire. You will have around 3 seeders if you are lucky then the chances of it being a fake file or a virus outweigh the time t takes to download the file in the first place.
Maybe if Limewire actually took the time to block users for such practises then it wouldn’t be so bad. Who knows though the youtube community could start uploading music videos again or maybe Warner Music Group might just realise the amount of free promotion that they are losing out on by banning all their tracks from the most popular website on the planet.
But again this is all wishful thinking and maybe its just time to start updating our virus checkers again and spending forever building a Windows Media libary instead of just searching on youtube.
