www.divx.com has some movies online, check out the free samples at one of thier partner sites to see a drm'd.divx file..wma has a very weak encryption scheme, there are programs that can strip a file quickly, either unfuck or freeme (one removes the copywrite, the other waveouts>another wma)
i'm sure people are working on.wmv and.divx and whatever realplayer/faac/quicktime drms exist.
and if it is uncrackable (hah) there is always line-out, s-video out, wave-out, and screen capture.
a detailed report of what the government spends on what.
computers? thats a small minority of what the government spends money on, i'd like to see how much money goes to other stuff... corporate welfare perhapse?
i have tried freenet, like i said, tell us when, and i'll try it again.
i tried gnutella way back when, napster at beta 2, winmx, cutemx, scour exchange, i even ran a WASTE server for a while when it was announced on slashdot.
wouldnt this mean any proxy server as well? if say i used a proxy to access google? 3rd party... searching other computers contents... over the internet...!
19 ``(b) As used in this section, the term `enabling soft- 20 ware' means software that, when installed on the user's 21 computer, enables 3rd parties to store data on that com- 22 puter, or use that computer to search other computers' 23 contents over the Internet.''.
Back in the time when the dinosaurs ruled the earth, and the RIAA was not around... bands would travel the usa and play at bars or taverns or at the local community center, without any exhorbant prices, without any 'middleman'. they seemed to do just fine.
now the middleman is the internet, there is no need to promote things. websites like http://www.audioscrobbler.com are popping up, watching what you listen to, what other people listen to, matching them and you up and giving you reccomendations.
with programs like soundforge and others, anyone with a moderate pc plus musical instruments can record music.
nowadays no artists can rent a stadium if they arent signed because they cannot charge enough to meet the rent. eliminate the RIAA, and the concert halls will have to start taking chances, and lowering prices.
part of the problem also lies with clearchannel, you cant have 200 people telling 300million what to listen to, clearchannel wont allow airtime to any indie artists, hence we cant listen to them

is a special proxy set up for kazaa that just relays transfers, include it in the next kazaa lite, everyone sends thru everyone else.
i'd love to see what happens when an unsecured wifi network owner gets a letter.
"Well gee, I just got this set up. Whats kazaa?"
will mozilla ever put MNG support back in?

porn websites often post clips to newsgroups in efforts to get people visiting.
;)
porn people got it right, they are the first on any new technology, always advancing it
cds are being used as another warez distribution method as well! oooh! captian obvious!
yes, a torrent newsgroup would fill this niche very nicely
3 people at once is all you need for a torrent to be more efficient than any other transfer protocol.
one giveth and one taketh away ;)
