POPULAR file sharing website Limewire has been shut down after a four year legal battle with the US music industry.

The news that the courts have closed the book on easy access Limewire, may not come as such bad news to its users. The rise of YouTube converter to download music has appealed to many.

“YouTube converter is the way forward and I never really liked using Limewire, it gave me viruses” said Rebecca Hunt, 20, Studying Primary Education at Canterbury Christ Church.

Bobby Harvey, 27, studying Music technology at Thames valley University said: "Limewire was never a good thing. The music industry didn’t realize the effect the Internet would have, but downloading music illegally didn’t give justice to record labels and artists.

Country singer, Taylor Swift new album “I hate cheaters” has rocketed since the ultimate end of Limewire. Her album, released last month has sold nearly, 1,047,000 copies in America.
