Limewire getting closer to integrate store in P2P client
Since we informed you about Limewire entering the digital music business, the company has been constantly working on getting that on line music store integrated into the Limewire 's popular P2P file-sharing program. This can be seen from a recent version of the software (4.16.6) which features an entry in its Options menu that let you enable a download directory destined to purchased tracks.

Limewire has previously made known its intention of providing context-relevant links to content from its download store into the p2p program. In fact, this menu entry indicates that Limewire client is likely to function as a download manager for the store. For now the store's Terms of Use don't make available any download manager for potential customers.
Additionally, the aforementioned terms don't allow any sharing of the content from the download store via the client; however, the application doesn't prevent you from sharing the directory for store purchases manually.
Finally, Limewire's copyright filter doesn't appear to perform a total filtering out of the whole store catalogue.
