Reply to the thread, not just Grant,
Just curious, but aren't y'all the least bit concerned with RIAA,
BSA, et al, recent prosecutions of P2P users ? They run the same P2P
apps, then take and save a snapshot of your available files .. then
sue ya. For what I've read, this is already happenin in Europe, at
about $12 to 14,000 per case. Or, maybe, as I ust'a do with Napster,
maybe y'all don't allow connections? If that's the case, file
sharing is also doomed.
Whether right or wrong, I don't think most of us can stand up to
M$ and Hollywood size legal bills, even if all they collect is bogus
file names to take to court. Lawyers are what we can't afford. For as
long as it lasts, I use private ($$) UseNet binary groups, but
_never_ post. Besides, the file selection, while it's take what you
can get, is usually better and also current. All you need is pan ;>
Yeah, I'm just a sponge ;)
