    RED WE ARE NOT TALKING ABOUT THE CURRENT LAW.


    Jesus..

    Why are you so dense..

    Why is online file sharing loss of income not OK but sharing a BOOK IS?

    DO YOU UNDERSTAND THE QUESTION?

    Can you answer with out quoting the LAW?

    Not hardly. You haven't even risen to a proper debate.

    You stole a copyrighted recording if you duplicated it and shared it with someone.

    That is something entirely different. We are legally entitled to backup copies of electronic media for our personal use. You break the law if you distribute a copy of a copyrighted recording to a third party. This is not "sharing", it is "duplicating" and piracy.

    No, that's not the point..

    Stop being dense.

    The point of this entire bill is loss of income and to get the government involved in the internet.

    I can upload to Megaupload with a password for a friend to hear and then they can delete the file.

    Same principle as loaning a music CD...

    Boom, I un-stole the music....

    I am. WTF are you talking about?

    I'm not. Think about it.

    Repeating the answer to this question a fifth time is useless, clearly.

    I think I'll just stop trying to debate you logically.

    You haven't answered it once.

    In any case, its about as useless as answering a question with a response other than the answer...

    Only they don't. Perhaps you should go to megaupload.com and see what is there now.

    Nope. Because now two copies exist, one of which was not paid for. Piracy.

    Posts 113, 115, 138, 147, 154, 158, 160, and 184. Just because you ignore it or failed to read it doesn't mean that I haven't answered it.
