How long before you recive a cease and desist letter
 
I have downloaded software and I am worried about if I will recive a cease and desist letter. How long before I will recive one? Will I? I just need to know how long I need to be worried. Have you recived a letter? Is it by mail or email?

1 hour or 50 years...

If they find you they send a letter, as long you didnīt get one they donīt know that you are downloading illegal stuff.

Yes if you are out of luck.

After your first illegal download/upload started you have to be worried.

A cease and desist letter is only a warning, if you get this letter and stop sharing you have nothing to fear.

Even if you NEVER have infringing files, you might still receive a letter in error.

http://www.macintouch.com/digitalrights.html#oct08 is reporting such a case--the machine wasn't even capabale of doing what the RIAA said :mad:

heh--they'll probably argue that it's not your music.

Bad Peerless--didn't you know C-sharp or some other note is included in all RIAA music?
