Limewire

I have no problem with it usually. If it's a larger file and few people have it, it might be a bit frustrating, but to download a normal song it only usually takes a minute or two for me. In fact, I just downloaded like 10 songs in the last 10 minutes...
What type of internet connection do you have, by the way?

Must be your connection, because it downloads pretty fast for me...a minute or two per song at the most.

1. Dont use LimeWire, download FrostWire (Open Source fork!)
2. Its most likely your connection. If you can get downloads via your browser at "normal speed" but in LW not, then this must be the cause.
3. Karma:P

Must be your connection. Generally it takes me 1-3 minutes to get a song off of Limewire, and that's with a full queue of 10 or 12 downloads at a time. Of course the more sources you can pull a file from the faster it will download so the more obscure stuff is going to work more slowly but that's really the only thing I've noticed.

I am using LimeWire too, Its downloading speed depends on how many persons it connect to and I always download files up to 20kbps
