The primary problem here is not simply legality or morality; those can be entirely short-circuted by simple risk/reward management. The risk to a company such as SlimDevices in providing, encouraging, soliciting, or allowing trade of *anything* that might be targetted for legal action is just too high, and the reward very small and intangable. SD seems very unlikely to sell appreciably more players because the forum can assist in trading or sharing music files, certainly not enough to offset possible litigation or fines. (consider forum user DissatisifedCustomer, who retaliates via informing RIAA, etc. about such forums.)
If a person wants to enjoy the rewards, said person must be prepared to bear the entire risk and its burden of consequences. It feels a might selfish to ask "hey, do this thing that you might find risky and have to pay the consequences so that I may get some reward". ;-) -- MrC ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MrC's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=468 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=23019 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
