RIAA Offers Amnesty to File Sharers
Mister Dre writes "Apparently, the RIAA is planning to offer amnesty to file sharers who promise to delete copyrighted material from their computers. To take advantage, of course, you 'have to send a completed, notarized amnesty form to the RIAA, with a copy of a photo ID.'" Hey RIAA, how about I just stop sharing files, and we call it even? I know I own most of the CDs for the files I listen to, but I stopped buying those too so you'll know where I stand.
Windows is copyrighted, right?
In Soviet Russia, goatse looks at YOU!
You're trying so hard for + informative.
It's pathetic, really.
Alright, why does that fact that you encode your songs in a format such as ogg vorbis make it important enough to mention? Let me guess, MP3 is the evil creator like Windows and ogg vorbis is the free and open clone savior, like Linux. This shit makes me sick. Who gives a rat's ass?
"I owe most of my karma to SCO"
Nice sig. By extension, I guess this means Slashdot is a derivative of System V.
The global economy is a great thing until you feel it locally.
I could see SCO offering an "amnesty" program: Delete all copies of Linux that you have and promise that you won't ever violate SCO's copyright again, and they won't sue you.
Now I understand the real reason why Microsoft is supporting SCO by buying their licenses.
Remember the days when Republicans were the party of fiscal responsibility?
From my house, go down the road and turn left. At the end, turn left. At the end of that road, turn left. At the end of that road turn left again. At the end of THAT road, turn left. Part way down that road, you can turn left to get to my house. That makes a complete circuit with 6 lefts.
Not to pick nits or anything, but I think your equation should be xw = r...
