The IFPI doesnt advise using limewire. They advise using the sites on pro-music, and some of those links are old and redirect to limewire and kazza. That is distinc from advising. You need to make sure headlines are clear, because some people might only read the headline, then get a false impression. It's important that as pirates, we remain committed to journalistic standards, to improve our image in the media. On the other hand, I enjoyed the article. The IFPI is a pile of shit. Leave it to them to get kids mixed up in hardcore porn, if it means they can make a profit on it somehow. I read torrent freak, but I have to say: Your headline is misleading.

That way, sites like ISO Hunt, Demonoid ect will be more kid friendly. Less ammo for the MPAA against Bit Torrent sites. I know they provide financing but getting Bit Torrent even more popular and mainstream should maybe trump adult advertisments.

But they'd like to frustrate them even further by first misdirecting them to scumware sites. Why aren’t they encouraging them to use bittorrent since they bought it? I don’t think they care if kids try downloading top 10 “songs” with Limewire as there’s more trojans, viruses, spam, scam, & fakes than it’s worth; the big4 being the main culprits (probably the only). But they’d like to frustrate them even further by first misdirecting them to scumware sites.

That's usually the case. They give guidelines, new laws, new rules but they haven't really ever tried it. Their decision to put up a program like that probably came from some lazy employee who tunes in to imeem while working. Not that I have anything against imeem don't get me wrong. Just the laziness. well as the article said, apparently, they didn’t try it themselves. That’s usually the case. They give guidelines, new laws, new rules but they haven’t really ever tried it.

Probably as much as Senator Ted Stevens ... the internet is just like dumping everything on a big truck lol that speech just killed me just shows how much these idiots know about the internet i mean anyone with half a brain would at least check the links out if they are working if they are what they say they are before going ahead to print and start mass printing flyers and then preaching to the school kids/parents about it.

If your mp3 file wont play. Delete it and run a scan. Good advice from Uncle stemcell They are cloning these kids.

In 2 days he collected 27 viruses 7 different. 67 spywares, 39 different and several other forms of malware Includibg 2 rootkits! I am currently reformatting his hard drive as none of the popular AV or anti spyware progs were able to remove all of them. The IFPI exec that made that proposal should take his own advice.

This is the biggest piece of copynazi propaganda I've seen in a while. I hope it comes to my school and they round us up for an assembly. "Any questions?" Umm, yes. Why should we listen to a company working with people who are ripping off artists and consumers daily? A company that has fascist roots in Mussolini's Italy? If it's our right, which it is, to enjoy media, whose right is it to take it away? "Umm...I just got the pamphlet thingie..." Figured so. How do they think they can stop it? In a grade of about 80 people, only 7 think it's wrong to get media w/o paying the people making it. And they'll soon learn. The people who are growing up to make the laws don't think it's wrong...guess what will happen in about 20 years when your neighbor who got an RIAA C&D letter becomes a Congressman? Bye-bye, copyright. I love how the bastards reference Creative Commons as a secondary “don’t-take-our-money” thing.

Hopefully by steering kids towards "Folder Sharing" clients you'll be easier to catch,instead of the needle in a haystack that is BitTorrent. Rather clever of them if I don't say so myself.
