LimeWire had the search built in. Coupled with being a kid, it made it very easy to download it and get tons of free music. I don't even think I understood what torrenting was at the time. If it was seeding it either didn't make it clear or I was just that young and dumb. Basically, the interface was intuitive enough for people to just use and not worry about the details is what I'm trying to say.
