Are you worried about being prosecuted for using p2p software? With the music industry starting to sue individuals for file sharing are you worried that you might be prosecuted? And do you think music companies will succeed in their fight P2P companies. |
Jes. No. The Programs will protect my privacy, soon. |
wish someone would explain this stuff to my bro, feel like my head is sore from butting a brick wall, he don't seem to get the fact that even though you can pay £18 sumat for limewire, but its still peer to peer :rolleyes: Oh an yeah i'm worried when my bro is on my case to use my internet connection and pay for a percentage of it, then download illegal music. But who will really get done for it? not him cos his laptop won't be here to prove it. I will, will he pay the bill whatever they may serve upon us? no he'll expect me to do so. Will he watch my family starve, his 3 nieces and nephew? No he'll walk away with no worries no cares what happens to us. :rolleyes: |
Just tell him to use anonymous p2p. And to check the Wikipedia for Infos. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anonymous_P2P Simply don't let anyone in on your connection with non-anonymous p2p-software. And don't let yourself get all fuzzy eyed. |
No, I dont share music or movies |
Ferral, can you explain what you mean by not sharing music or movies??? Are you a freeloader :D |
Oh well, then I'll be frank: I share both, Music and Movies, and also Documents (txt, rtf, pdf, odt). Those are Documents by my own making plus some I am allowed (or even encouraged) to share by their authors. :D If you need something to share, just IM' me. Besides: @GirPlanet: That's your fraggin' brother, so he will very ungladly pay your bill alongside you, if you get hit by that chance of one to I-know-not-how-much, except if he's a <self-censored :)>, and if he's a <self-censored :)>, you shouldn't let him in on your connection, so your post seems a little weeny bit unreasonable/fear-pretending/useless (choose your type of post yourself). And if you are afraid and don't use anonymous p2p, get a grip on yourself and take a glimpse at wikipedia. And if your bro doesn't use ano-p2p, even though he knows you are afraid, he's still a <self-censored :)>. Have fun, or at least try to look like it ;) |

Let me elaborate, I dont share music or download music. I get all the music I need straight from digital TV. Movies I dont share or download movies made in hollywood. I do download a lot of porn, both image and video, but none of it is covered by MPAA members! I get all the older movies straight from digital TV, Blockbuster think I have a handicaped relative who watches 4 movies a day :) I share and download a lot of jokes and funny clips etc etc, also not covered by MPAA! I download and share a lot of documents, many people "publish" their books for free on line these days, I am an avid reader. Mostly I only use and write "freeware", so programs are not an issue for me. |
Ahhhhh, cool mate....LOL i was just checking....;) |
I rarely download movies or such from torrents and only have about 70 music files...should I even be worried about being prosecuted? |
Since the RIAA runs wild these days, you might want to think about going political: http://www.eff.org/ http://www2.piratpartiet.se/the_pirate_party http://ffii.org/index.en.html http://defectivebydesign.org/en/node/400 And think about your consuming habits: http://defectivebydesign.org/ http://creativecommons.org/ http://freeculture.org/ http://bloodspell.com |
i have a lawsuit pending.i would like to know the fine |
Don't Know If you've seen this Hi Guys,Girls Don't Know If you've seen this http://reviews.cnet.com/4520-10165_7-5798512-1.html I think this puts it in plain terms, so everybody can understand without the usual rubbish Sgt |
Firstly, i'm not worried about being proscecuted for something that I consider my freedom. For one, I dislike buying cd's, the price is ridiculous and if you only like one song then what's the point of paying x amount of money for that one song. Two, I dislike paying x amount of money to see a movie at the cinema to find out that it was hyped up, or overrated. Secondly, the entertainment industry is always trying their best to win over illegal uploading and downloading (exchanging) of illegal material, but when one application goes down another takes it's place. So it's a losing battle for them. |
First of all. I do download and share whatever I feel like, but... I still buy music, rent movies, buy some programs and go to the cinema. I think that some of you have got this all wrong and are the main reason that the RIAA, MPAA and all other organisations are crashing down on P2P. There is nothing wrong with buying a CD that you like most of the songs on. I know that the recordindustry get the most part if not all of the profits, but it will still help the artist get his/her next record deal. If everybody had your view on things, do you really think the the movieindustry would continue spending millions of dollars on every movie. Or software companies would spend millions on developing new and (better :rolleyes:) sofware ? and games ? Even though I am an active user of P2P and can pretty much get whatever I want I still spent about 6-700 $ on software and media the last year, and if you started doing the same thing there would be no need for those organisations Also lets get into freeware. Most of the programs you download and use for free, you have the option to make a donation if you like the software. I saw a side article on one of those programs from the programmer which said, that he was seriosly thinking of getting a job instead of making freeware. In the 8 years that he had been making software for free distrubution and usage millions of people had downloaded his software. Especially this caught my attention. It had been downloaded over 700.000 times and he had got 370 $ in donations. No wonder he is thinking about getting a job, because the only thing keeping him afloat was that his wife worked a job that actually paid Something to think about, isn't it ? If I come across the article again I will post a link here so you can see for yourself how God damn cheap you really are |
I'm not really worried. I rarely use LimeWire now and when I do use it, it's to find songs that are a ***** to find in music stores. As for sharing, I only share the files that I had a difficult time finding. I use to share a large amount of files but I've limited my shared files a great deal. |
