Biggest thing is "Sharing"....Just last year the Supreme court ruled against people who share, NOT download.
In the case of the woman who got charged 80,000 per song, 3 things need to be said.
1. She was sharing the 24 odd songs, however, anyone who has a head on their shoulders knows that the RIAA/MPAA did not go after her for just a simple 24 songs. More than likely she had in the thousands all in her share folder after d/l.... They just simply chose the songs they knew they would have no issues with insisting copyright laws on her. (Also, she had a piss poor lawyer)...
2. Bullshit programs like Kazaa, Limewire, Mozilla, Napster, Sharebear, etc. etc.....Stay away from them...Torrent, streaming, IRC should be your only source, if you truly want to play it safe...
3. After download, take it out of your share folder....No matter what program you are using...
Now I know many of you here live in Europe........So if you do, I have no idea what your laws are or how they work etc....
I'm still hoping the Pirate Bay boys stick it to the industry.......Just waiting for that appeals to go through....But in the meantime, they are still up and running....
Oh yeah, Rockthatpiano06 for your question,,,, I have never downloaded a thing in a my life.........
I also have never lied either...... LOLLLOLOL
