Somehow, the whole Limewire experience is flawed. The user interface is all ass-backwards. I'm not a software engineer so I cannot put into words why I don't like it and how it should be improved, but I don't and it should. The developers should start over.
The VersionTracker page should also contain a link to the latest PPC version.
Limewire should also not prevent me from changing the name. I prefer all my apps to contain the version number in their names. Limewire does not permit me to change its name to "Limewire 5.2.13"
And how strange. When I go to the developer's site to download a copy of the last PPC-compatible verson, 4.18.8 according to them, the installer that arrives on my machine, although it indeed is version 4.18.8, is titled "Limewire 5"
It also gets uppity when I try to move it to where I want it to live
I also object that the only English version available is American English. There are many other English-speakers who do not like American English. Indeed, about a quarter of the world speaks non-American English! (OK small point, I know.)
No offline help. Annoying.
But most of all, I am extremely annoyed at being constantly nagged to upgrade to the paid version.
This app is gone!
