No Dan i dont

I just look for open source alternatives.

Too bad there's no good open source alternative for Photoshop (no, I do NOT want to hear about how great the GIMP is). The copy that I have now is one that was rescued from my old laptop right before the hard drive broke. By the way, if I took the program files from that old hard drive (where that copy of Photoshop was legit) and put them onto my new laptop, is that legal?

As for pirated stuff, I remember reading somewhere that ISP's keep a record of all their customer's download histories, and that police can access them with a warrant or something like that. But I could be wrong, so could someone confirm that?.

Do you know how trivial it would be to find out where you live?

Pretty trivial. You have a very unique name.

Oh.... Diana is common enough,
Well , u cant possibly know my last name , I am not reistered anywhere public with my name either
I really hope you are wrong and i am pretty sure you are...

This is true.

It's only illegal if you distrubute the contents or something like that. If you rip it to put it on your (own) iPod or to make a backup copy, then I'm sure that's legal but the Copyright Amendment Act 2006 isn't too clear on it, though (like most other legislation).

Apparently some people make backup copies of their music... I don't see the point in it, though...

 

[squeenie]

I love the name Catriona...
Yeah well i got lots of brothers and so lots of baseball bats...but i still wouldnt risk it.
I am Diana Diana Diana , one of a kind , one and only Goddess of...hunting...or the moon... or.... whatever
Tis all anyone ever need know...

Oh come on! You don't need brothers or baseball bats! You just need to kick them right where it hurts!

im pretty sure thats the 'legal loophole' - hence the bold

Oh I see what you meant.

"But officer! It's just backup copies of my music collection!!"
"Yeah, tell it to the judge"

Lol...well im very good at that
Scratch out eyeballs , bite off nose...can do that too i guess.

 

[squeenie]

My bad. Although, this isn't completely true either.

Most CDs these days have copyright protection (easily broken when you are ripping) and thus this is deemed copyright infringement.

Dunno where I stand on copyright. I mean, yeah artists need to make money etc...but record companies (and stores) inflate prices a rediculous amount. I can buy 2-3 cds from a local record company, for the price of one CD at sanity, or say, an NIN album (well...pre-Reznor "let's give this shit away" faze)

Yeah, a lot of the albums I own claim to be 'copyright protected'. And then that 'copyright protection' gets pwned when I rip the CD to my laptop.

Dropkicks, uppercuts, the usual. I learnt self-defence for a while back in year 9. Oh the fun I had...

When most people look at me, they think I'm the wimpiest kid around. But they don't know that all I need is a textbook to become a weapon of mass destruction.

I am pretty sure that would be invasion of privacy

that is if you try and burn the CD ussually.

 

[squeenie]

Yeah, it would be. I have some friends who work for the police, I'll ask them about it next time I see them...

I've heard about people getting caught using bittorrent, too... Does anyone know anything about that?

 

[squeenie]

that is if you try and burn the CD ussually.

Actually, I tried that, just to see what would happen, and it worked... But yeah, most of the time music with copyright protection would stop you from burning it onto a CD. You can check if a song has copyright protection by checking the file info on Windows Media Player or Winamp.

I know there are some DVD's that have copyright protection that actually works.
