You just need to make a property transfer paper stating that you are the owner of that precise file and that you transfer ownership to someone, named below.

The most annoying thing in games are those that only work if you have a super computer.
That is shooting on your own foot!
I played Everquest (the original) and it was great. Good enough detail and good responsiveness, both from server and from my computer.
Then they made 2 expansions and it still was ok...
Then they made the moons expansion, upgraded the graphic engine, new spell effects and so on, and hell broke loose!
They transformed a good game into a lag machine.
Soon after, they lost a player on me...
They cooperate by two ways:
a) Take downs when they receive a complaint;
b) Identify users after receiving a court order.
And even in that case, they have the obligation to inform the user.
Yes, they are forfeiting the safe harbor of be a "transit" of communications only.
The same happens with DPI, any kind of firewall/filtering of content, and traffic shaping.
Yes, but the issue is moot...
For instance, if you install a demo of a game, and then, instead of ununstalling, you just delete the directory where it is...
Naturally, you keep the computer completly riddled with some resources of the game.
If someone inspects the computer they can say... The game X was installed on this computer. Where is your license for it?
So... yup...
And nope... they can't seize the computer as they like. They are mandated to make a copy of the HD for forensic analysis.
You can thank to FBI and Steve Jackson Games for that... ;)
Which may also be a crime... or not, depending... ;)
That is not the correct law.
I'm not sure, but the music, it it's there just to fill up the sound track, it's ok.
But IANAL... nor do i remember the source of this...
DMCA prevents it.

Go read the law...
Is stoped...
In the last 15 years i brought 3 CDs.
And 2 of them where the soundtrack of a manga series (imported from Japan naturally).
And yes, before the whole music "piracy" wars, i was buying about 1 CD per month... ;)
The issue is that DMCA is very specific with that.
The right owners have to identify exactly what is against their will...
And i doubt that they are doing it.
And as they are at that, what differentiates a legal from an illegal download?
Specially as they don't know if I've or not a license to the download or not!
I wonder how they know that the download is pirated.
Do they know if the downloader has or not the music on CD?
Spooky!
If noScript breaked your online banking, then prolly your bank needs a new site! ;)
Yes, but you aren't plaged by css... ;)
That would work in countries like the PIGS, but not in Germany.
I'm sure that the courts will move swiftly to impound any assets to cover the court expenses and the debt.
So, not answering isn't an option...
Getting legal counseling is recommended...
Yes, and the online provisions are now even bigger... with the new legislation.
Act fast, and declare you don't want the product and ask for the return policy as you are entitled to.
If and keep all docs of the exchange... because if things go to court... you will need those letters (yes ask with a registered letter, not by email).
Not exactly.
Now you are charged of criminal offenses because of the terrorists and the children.
Think of the security and the children!
Worse...
Lets all hail to the rise of the IV Reich...
Now it's called EU...
So hush... hush...
Worse... you hinder regular and law abiding citizens, and accomplish nothing regarding the law breaking ones!
If she accidentally ordered a box with the wrong OS she should have had it replaced, not talked about it...
So, it's her fault 100%.
Not Dell or UBUNTO...
Not an issue...

That doesn't mean that there are loads of other instances inside crypted... ;)
Walmart can't convince suppliers to use RFID without resorting to blackmail and MS is trying for world use of a new label just for fun?
Good luck...
I don't know why, but company buy-out/sale isn't a demise of the company, to start out.
And to end, IMHO, all of those companies will be ok thru 2009... Unless they blunder naturally, but that no company is full-proofed...
Don't drop tea in the ocean...
The temperature of the ocean will raise and you will melt all the polar ice!
What i would do would be to phone them and email them asking for price quotes, demos and the like...
After all i even may find it interesting to know their products... I may even buy them!
