LimeWire

LimeWire is a defunct peer-to-peer file sharing platform known for its free and open-source software, used predominantly for music downloads from around the world. Founded in 2000 and terminated in 2010 following a court injunction, their mission was to create a decentralized sharing network without the need for a central server. With its main operations located in New York, USA, LimeWire's platform was one of the first and most popular platforms during the early days of digital music sharing.
