And me as well, though I do use Bittorrent: because DGMLive recommends it for downloading music I purchase from them. (Emusic and Amazon make good money from me, though RIAA probably doesn't mainly because much of my music is from Non-RIAA companies.) I am also intrigued by the legal aspects of moving electronic media across borders, which includes things like DVDs (despite MPAA's assertions, DVDs arent copy protected: they are region-locked... you can make a copy of an encrypted DVD and it will play just fine -- in the same regions the original were available in). Oh, yeah, and I am annoyed at the insane license fees for "Internet Radio".... Since it should be something the music publishers embrace, just as they do over the air radio: sure, like over the air there is a minimal piracy risk, but the chance to have your music micro-targetted to potential customers outweighs that risk greatly. -- snarlydwarf ------------------------------------------------------------------------ snarlydwarf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=28858 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
