No, I'm sure they want your business. They just don't want you stealing their stuff.


OK Mr. RIAA, (I checked your homepage), so why do they call it file swapping software and not "file stealing software"?


Because were swapping files with each other. Not stealing them. There is a difference

Then you should have no trouble convincing the court of this black and white distinction.

Good Luck.

You're not just 'swapping' files.You're recreating them and distributing them as if you own them.You can justify it however you want......bottom line is its thievery plain and simple.

OK Mr. RIAA

Not with the RIAA. Actually can't stand much of what the RIAA stands for. Sorry, wrong guy.

so why do they call it file swapping software and not "file stealing software"?

Oh, gee, I don't know -- is it maybe because the people who invent and use the programs like the euphemisms "sharing" and "swapping" better than the word "stealing"?

Good Lord. Is this place populated by any actual adults?
