i find it interesting that this forum labels "potentially" infringing materials as illegal. Personally i avoid p2p downloads and dont have a single movie on data archive, but as a collector of rare media it is in many cases the ONLY way i can find things. I understand the need for a company to be at a distance from such controversy, however i point out that just because the special interest groups snuck the dmca by the consumer rights groups doesnt mean it is illegal. I am very sad that i am now being called a criminal because i wish to enjoy art which corporations still hold rights to, but refuse to distribute for ANY price. I ask for something more neutral that the spewing of lines which these groups continue to shove onto television and radio.. about the "evil" power of the consumer. It is fine if you dont like it, but i consider the issue much like abortion..... and in case you want to know, i havent bought a cd in 3 years, but i havent downloaded any music under copyright here either.
p.s.
There are bills in development by which the US government is now seeking ways to remove the current ability of companies to violate the constitutional rights of not only the public, but other fully legal companies (@_@).
