Can Lime Wire Reinvent Itself As A Legitimate Music Service? Lime Wire best known for file sharing and music pirates has opened a store that offers two million+ songs for 99 cents. “We’d love to work with the entire music industry,” said Lime Wire CEO George Searle. “I think there are some people in the majors who see the potential of Lime Wire.”

We have iTunes, eMusic, MSN Music, Music Match, Amazon, Music Now, Napster, Rhapsody, etc., and music label EMI is planning to setup their own digital music store. How many digital stores do we need selling music?
