Ah, but dear, sweet Bronnen, downloading items that you own (which, now you do) is not illegal. You have nothing to ph34r... all I know is that I have over 500 songs, 200 games, and a shit-ton of miscellaneous crap that I should have paid for... like movies... and tv series... etc...

Download law is pretty ambigous in the UK. I doubt they'd prosecute students unless they were doing some big time selling. Quote: In the latest trial, a federal jury in Minneapolis ruled that she must pay $1.92 million for willful infringement of the recording industry's copyrights by posting the music on the file-sharing site Kazaa Perhaps its more severe because she was actually uploading the songs. If it was mere downloading then perhaps her case wouldn't be pursued. Either way, I think the case will be dropped if she can take it higher. Edited by Setoshin, Jun 22 2009, 09:10 AM.

All I know is that it isn't illegal to download, but I'm not sure of all the other laws. Therefore, I propose all Americans simply cross the border to download music. b_happy

I wonder if we ever would. Then again single songs are being sold for 99 cents and companies like Napster would be doomed. frowns
