    "giving away copyrighted material is copyright infringement."

    That is playing right into there hands, yes according to the written law it may be only copyright infringement, but I know it is steeling and thats why I will not do it. If you take the view that your are suggesting you are in effect telling those with the power to take your freedoms away that you are not responsible enough to make your own reasonable decisions about what is right and what is wrong.

    "they think they're valid and they sign up for iTunes or something"

    The paper is not valid and the RIAA should be burned at the stake, but iTunes is fare and legitimate. Wether or not you support the RIAA, the artist or file swappers, giving away copyrighted material is stealing. If you want to maintain your rights to fare use then you will have to act responsibly or like any other abuse your rights may be taken away. This is not a situation were you have to trade music in order to survive, to think so is as selfish as the RIAA.
    When I was still in school I could barely afford to wash my clothes let alone pay for Photoshop so I used a pirated copy, now because I learned Photoshop I can now afford to buy it, it was a necessity and paying for it now is called the honor system.

  11. so what on Cable Beats DSL For Average Speed · · Score: 1

    Down or slower than a dialup for a couple hours a day, port blocking and lack of static ip's. I would take the slower average if it were available. PS. They just raised my rate $10 a month.
