Limewire won't die, zombie version to bring iTunes + cloud integration?
They may have had their pants sued off, but that's not stopping the half-naked crew at Limewire from making yet another foray into the digital music business. Yes, like a slobbering brain-hungry zombie that just won't die, Limewire is back from the dead and bent on taking over the world.Well, the world of cloud-powered digital music, anyway. According to a report from Digital Music News, the reincarnated Limewire will boast all kinds of cloud integration features -- including pulling your iTunes up into the stratosphere.
"Users will have complete and instant access to their entire library and catalog across their desktop, devices, and in the cloud," said one Limewire exec. "By syncing iTunes playlists and content to the cloud, users' existing libraries are available to access and stream to a wide range of connected devices."
Well, good luck with that fellas -- and here's hoping you beat iTunes.com to the punch. It's set to launch in the cloud later this summer, in case you weren't aware.
Regardless, Limewire execs are saying the new service has been well-received by record industry bigshots. Hey, they'd have to like the new idea better than the old model where Limewire's users mostly just uploaded and downloaded songs they probably hand't paid for.

I was not aware. Care to verify said awareness?

I still don't like Limewire. My roommate uses it and it gobbles up our bandwidth. I'm lucky to pull down 1 to 2 Mbps when I haven't completely disconnected him! We even have the 22 Mbps service and I've set his bandwidth priority to low on our router! If I get notice from Cox that our service is being downthrottled or any other notice, HE WILL RUE THE DAY!

The first time he doesn't scan his files for malware, the time and trouble (or service call cost) he'll spend to rebuild his system will convince him that Limewire is a bad idea.

Unfortunately, the one that will be spending time on that project will be me ('cause I'm nice like that, and he won't pay anyone for it).
