Well no I wouldn't personally, but then again I am happy to download several types of audio material from various sites on the net which I won't mention here for fear of breaking some list rule or something.
You are quite correct that piracy isn't so black and white, but then again here's a few arguments to consider: 1. if you are perfectly happy to download music, movies etc from various sites that supply such things without paying for them does that make you a pirate? Some would say yes some would say no. some people would say yes because if you have any form of software or own any material that you have obtained by any means than it being given you as a present or any other legal way then that makes you a pirate. Even if you don't actually distribute it. 2. some people would say that by backing up various material onto cd, dvd etc, then that also makes you a pirate because you are then putting it onto a distributable device. Such as a cd dvd etc. I know what you are saying and I actually agree with you totally on this. But you have to be careful that someone doesn't just go and say hang on that's mine what the hell are you doing. even if it is their responsibility to maintain a means of contact. Especially in this day and age. We are in the self serving age. Where by you will be had up in court for something as stupid as spilling hot coffee and doing the company concerned. Hmmm I wonder if that person has ended up on the darwin awards yet? --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can make changes or update your subscription via the web, at http://audyssey.org/mailman/listinfo/gamers_audyssey.org.
