Hi all

Thankgoodness some people DO fileshare -- think of many exposures of crimes in high places -- without journalists often at severe risk to themselves getting hold of "sensitive" material we could at times be very much worse off.

P2P per se isn't illegal and even if it were I can see cases where it could be used

For example if I buy a Movie for playing on a DVD player on a laptop and I'm in Europe - why should I have to put up with the B/S saying I can't play that movie whilst I'm visiting the US -- what's a laptop for -- MOBILE computing of course.

So I for one don't treat "bypassing regional encoding" for DVD's THAT I'VE PAID for a crime even if I have to get the cracks from "The Ship" or elsewhere.

Cheers

I agree...I also agree with the folks who say you don't buy software...you rent it

They have a point...just look at all the things that we can't do with the software we paid for...
