What multi-year, multi-label lawsuit? Outside of the legal barbs, LimeWire is now positioning an exclusive live set featuring Lisa Loeb, starting December 9th. According to the company, the Live at Lime performance will be an acoustic, digital-only EP featuring a combination of pop and children's songs. Proceeds will be donated to the Camp Lisa Foundation, a not-for-profit group that aims to send underprivileged children to summer camp.
The announcement follows an initial unveiling of the live series in July, and an earlier launch of the LimeWire Store in March. The Store features content from a number of partners, including The Orchard, Nettwerk Music Group, and Redeye Distribution.
The foray into paid content seems out-of-place for the notoriously free outlet, though application owner Lime Wire LLC is moving to recast itself as a provider of authorized music. That could help the company better defend itself in the long-running, RIAA-driven lawsuit, one that accuses LimeWire of knowingly encouraging and profiting from illegal sharing.
