No.
Uploading and storing a copy of software that you legitimately own as
a backup copy is NOT what you described to the guy asking about
getting this software. He does not own the software. That's exactly
the problem.
And I don't think you can make the case that rapidSHARE's motivation
is to make a backup of legally owned software. (If so, why do they
have "share" as part of their name?)
Exactly.
Their own site says it's purpose is:
"With one-click
hosting, our users can upload big files in one step and subsequently
make them available to friends and family via the download
link."
IOW, RapidShare's purpose is SHARING. It is NOT
backup.
