Now I understand why the USA is suddenly filled with white trash nerds and geeks selling files on the streets for a low price. Claiming that this is the GOOD stuff unlike their colleagues who sell weapons and drugs.:P
Now I wonder, what's the difference between the old times when we used VHS or BetaMax to record TV shows and pass it around to friends and the current DivX system?
Both were illegal but I can't really remember reading in the newspapers about someone being arrested or sued for recording a show on tape and passing it around.
Is it just me or what? Coz millions people more can see that one Enterprise episode, we are doing illegal stuff?
Casette tapes vs MP3 / Ogg
Video tapes vs DivX / Mpeg
But it really must be my own blonde dutch dumbness to think like this.. Unless there are people who understand what I just wrote down....
I wonder how people would feel if I'd take this baby to a LAN Party and download all the stuff from each and every one of those two thousand PC's. Would people still like me?
