file-sharing ....fear it?

[fatty_acids]

define "stealing music"

[Craxer]

exactly, how the fuck do WE know if the music is illegal? On one MP3 site its legal, on another site it's not, on kazaa its not. They should label the songs or something.

[shiftyeyesdogg]

Obviously a bluff. I would further my post with an argument, but I'm drawing a blank here.

Don't be a jackass. It's pretty safe to assume that most music you're downloading can be construed as illegal.

And Blood, the Netherlands totally kicks Finland's ass on the world pirating scene.

The Netherlands is just fucking sweet in general.

beautiful women

What more could you need?

A big fat pipe and a university that doesn't care what information flows through it's network.

Before Ashcroft decided to be an asshole about the whole thing, RIT was ranked prettty high behind the big Uni in the Netherlands (forget what the name is--there was a fire there not too long ago). I actually used to run a box with a couple other people on RIT's network.

hey, what if you have the record of everything you have downloaded?

like, i listen to velvet underground/led zeppelin/pink floyd/hendrix/you get my point, i have them all.

well, I have all of those albums on vinyl. so obviously i cant rip it to my computer, to transfer to my MD. So i gotta download.

oh, and from shoutcast.com -- it says you can run a radio "if you have less than 3 songs from each author". I also fall within those parameters. (i run a radio.)

i've started buying CD copies of these vinyls i have.

I figure its like ROMs--illegal unless you own the game, you know?

We're always let off the hook because of our affiliation with the CIA.
