Elvis, they don't go for the downloader, but the uploaders, the ones who provide files like mad men. People that have like 150gb of mp3's. You know? :)

you're referring to me aren't you? Hey, I only have 90 gigs of music on my harddrive, but I only share about 4 gigs on the peer-to-peer I use

damn, 90 gigs. . . I thought I had a pretty decent selection with 18. Are they all dowloaded or did you rip cd's too?

most are downloaded. I only have a few that are actual cd's...my prized discs that I wanted to have copies of in case something happened....Bell Biv Devoe - Poison, Bobby Brown, Redhead Kingpin (both his discs), Special Ed - Youngest In Charge, Cool As Ice (soundtrack....Vanilla's first and last starring role :P )

Ahhhhh it's Windozzzzz XP, nice to see BNZsport represented on you screen cap.
The programers will just come up with something new, a way to encrypt the title of what's being D/L'ed so no one know what you just D/L'ed.

I really hope someone gets into RIAA and shows them why they shouldn't be indulging in such criminal behavior lol.
Just listen to what that old foggy Orrin Hatch said - "We'll remotely destroy the computers of those that steal music!"

here's how I look at it... remember back before compact discs. say a friend had a cassette that you liked. you would just have him make a copy of it, or you would borrow the cassette and make a copy of it yourself. noone in the music industry had two words to say against this. now, instead of having say 5 friends with 10 cassettes that you want to make copies of, you have theis community with 500 friends with 100,000 albums worth of music to make copies of. is just a bigger group of friends with a larger selection of music. As long as noone (individuals) is making money from this, what is the problem? And I must point out that the whole file sharing thing really has opened up my musical horizons. I shuuder to think what I would be listening to if file sharing wasn't possible, but it would probably include top 40 hip hop and that alterna-rock garbage that seems to be becoming popular.
