Seems like a lot of people are searching for reasons to shut kazaa down or keep it up and running, but I believe in the KISS principle.
How did copyright laws come about in the first place. They came about because we live in a democracy, and the majority figured it was a good thing to have, not anything the record idustry did.
Well now we have 90 million copies or more of Kazaa being dowloaded, and that seems to be a pretty good chunk of a majority, considering how many computer users there are compared with total population.
Just because we decided on a set of rules some time ago does not mean we cannot change these rules, especially if it is the majority that wants them changed, ITS A DEMOCRACY AFTERALL!
