I don't think it will come here, and if it does they will probably declare an amenesty for people who have downloaded perhaps less than 1000 songs.
I doubt it wil happen here anyway, the Record Industry in the UK has been booming recently...... especially album sales. They've said the emphasis is on education rather than punishment. I don't care anyway, they can kiss a baboon's ass. |

Well, I'm not going to change (not that I use it much anyway, just for stuff you can't buy in the shops). It's all propaganda, the chances of being sued are minimal.
If they start to sue people over here Kazaa should set up a trust fund so that all users can donate money to help with legal costs. |

So if you download a tune and place it in a different file where it's not available to kazaa users then you'll prob be ok. They prob. find people by searching for songs then looking at how many songs that person is offering over kazaa and going after those that have loads.
I am actually quite worried now, I have soooo much music off kazaa - They are actually getting normal people to settle for thousands of pounds, smaller than the £250,000 per song that they were threatening, but still £2000 is waaaay more than I can afford How do you move your music to "unaccessible files" And how exactly do they catch you!?

But people with Kazaa Lite, usually have the same user name so it would be hard for the record companies to define it all to one user.

The law they're using to sue people in the US with, the DMCA doesn't exist in the UK/Europe... yet. Apparently it will be introduced early 2004.

None of my music is stored in my shared folder, I just share movies, so I am safe for now right?
Greedy music companies - they have more money than they can spend and they are trying to stop a good thing

There have been some landmark cases in the US. I have just come back (yesterday) and it's the hot topic at the moment on the news channels. The laws currently only affect US citizens but that is only a mater of time. Did you all think that a trillion dollar worldwide industry would just let this go on forever? Don't be naive. They don’t have to sue everyone, just enough to recoup their losses. You could be one of them in a year from now.
None of you are safe. You think you can hide behind pseudonyms and an ISP DHCP IP. The same technology that is being used by government agencies to break the pedo rings is only years, maybe months, away from the domain of the Music Industry Association of America counter-sharing teams. Then they can issue writs as fast as their LaserJets can print them. Only future history will show that this is just the beginning. Me... I'm glad I don't steal music and defraud these multi-billion dollar entities from their 500% profit per sale, but I'm going to wear my Teflon and wire coat-hanger hat just to be on the safe side. You think you should be scared of the CIA/MI6/Mossad... you haven’t met the Sony Music. Don’t... stop.... running... |

Regarding Sony, there was an interesting artical in the Guardian yesterday (i think), the jist of it was that
The Music part wan't to highly control where the music goes, so phrohibit copying... Where as the "gadgets" part need to produce what people want - devices that can record and copy music (how many people here have (or have had) a Sony system with a twin tape deck for example?). The gadgets part even won in court to make it legal for them to produce / sell VCR's |

Well until the law comes into play over here, we are safe.

The trouble now is that people have simply got used to the idea of simply being able to download music off the internet for free.
As far as they are concerned music is free in the public domain. It has been going on for far too long now for anyone to be able to stop it. And to be honest I can only blame the record companies for charging FAR too much on their CD's. |
