LimeWire Makes It Official: It's All Over

It took a day, but LimeWire has responded to my request for comment on its imminent shutdown: It acknowledges that it’s shutting down, imminently. Via email: “Given our current situation, plans to bring our separate, legal music service to market have been canceled. The beginning of 2011 will mark the closing of LimeWire’s New York office and cessation of business by LimeWire. We attracted some of the top talent from the technology community over the years to build our new music service. We’ll be helping our team members commence their job search over the next few months.”
