Mentioning a specific copyrighted work in public in the context of a
possible copyright violation is just plain stupid, and we are not going to risk
that, period.

If you want to blame somebody, blame the litigation-addicted MAFIAA, not us.

You do realize that they probably have people watching these forums, looking
for chances to sue people, don't you? If the file in question was copyrighted
then posting a title or hash to something they claim rights to would be an
open invitation for a subpoena to reveal the identity of againjiggai.

We are not going to bother to investigate whether a copyright is involved or
not, especially as it is not relevant to fixing the software problems we deal
with here every day.

It is not illegal to help someone fix their media player, so we are going to go
ahead and do that. It is not wrong or immoral to scrub out any chance
reference that may lead to a lawsuit, so we are going to do that every time too.

You don't need to know specifically which file was involved in order to
help with a media playing problem. Simple enough?
