Like BearShare developed by FreePeers, Inc., LimeWire is commercial software created by LimeWire LLC. LimeWire and BearShare have been the two leading vendors driving Gnutella protocol development after the GDF was founded by Clip2's Kelly Truelove.
LimeWire is available in two versions: a basic, free version, and an enhanced version sold for a small sum. The LimeWire source code was published under the GPL and is available at LimeWire's development site.
