I have a 2.2 TB Server, its around 80% full. I dont know how many songs, but around 300 movies and 150 complete series.

One day the cops actually were let in by a friend of mine for an unrelated incident, he walked in saying “the cops are here” and we all laughed until 4 of them came into the house.

My asshole had never been tighter.

………. luckily nothing happened, they realised that we were not the people they were after. Oh and we just finished a joint before they came in :D

32 Jul 04, 2009 at 23:13 by John <– do you know if he saw that on the cinema? do you know if he had the cds for part of what he had in the HD? Shut up, he stole nothing if he has bought any of that content. You don’t buy everything you download simply because it’s not worth the money. If you are a rich asshole go ahead and deposit extra money for them every time you buy a song or whatever but please… stfu.

France sucks indeed.

Not using an encryption software like TrueCrypt is the same that go to police and admit guilt.

we all have cd-roms and internet connections. we can now do the job of getting the media ourselves – so record companies services are simply not needed.

all their lawsuits are like laundresses trying to make usage of laundry machines illegal.

why should we pay to someone for a job we can do ourselves?

They are paying for those download!

They paid their respective ISPs, Modem companies, Telco Companies, PC companies, Software companies, Electricity companies, media companies and they pay taxes.

So with that in mind why don’t you STFU! and take your rant elsewhere.

Until people realize that people not paying for things and going the freeloading route hurts the industry, they will continue to victimize themselves and decry the law when it takes it’s course and people who chose to abuse society’s trust are faced with the consequences of their actions. The P2P community simply isn’t accustumed to the concept of moral and legal accountability.

Pirates claim that downloading copyrighted thins is a right… Here is the bill of human rights

I will give you a million dollars if you can find where it it mentions not paying for things.

I use Truecrypt for all my downloads, and Portable Apps Suite for all my communications programs. All this is on a separate external hard drive. Cops could grab it, look at it, and not be able to do anything. You just keep your mouth shut. Don’t give them a yes, Don’t give them a no.

Downloading HD makes no sense unless you delete after viewing, because the hard drive space that you need to store a movie in 1080 will cost as much as a BluRay disc, or perhaps not quite as much anymore since hard drives get cheaper all the time. Still, I would rather buy the disc and be legal. The video scene lamers waste a lot of bandwidth using way too high bitrates for HD video!

“More of a people’s government?”

China is a people’s republic…

“which facilitates the illegal exchange of numerical files between Net surfers”

Yeah, peer-to-peer is illegal. The internets aren’t meant for exchanging files!

“i’m gonna get those program to chang my IP”

uh wat

“france sucks”

Same thing in France. This is a condensed version of the story. They had a warrant.

This can’t possibly last long though. The french aren’t exactly fond of cops in general.

WHAT? in america, the police cant come into your house with a warrant for one thing, nose through your shit and arrest you for something else. Like if a bloody axe and an arm were sitting on a table that would be fine, but this is so out of line.

A bit off topic but does anyone know of any good software for windows which can have all your moives on a network drive as files with the title of the film, date released, actors etc. I want to have a DVD collection my hard drive, anyone know?

I am pretty sure my collection is almost just as large. I’ve got almost a Terabyte of pirated stuff on my hard disk. Luckily, I live in a third world country where no one gives a damn, and pirated stuff are sold in front of the high court’s gates.

Hahahaha
i can see it now…

all the lawyers get a million dollar bonus. The movie industrie’s managers too :P…

just cause they won 33000 whole euro’s.
Bit different that the, what was it, more than a million, for the 20 songs that american woman downloaded?

Nevertheless, i really have to congratulate all the movie studio’s and music studio’s with this fantastic victory… we are so happy for you that you have managed to get a whole 33000 euro’s… let’s say it again… 33… 1000… euro’s… so great that the poeple living on a ritirement can chip in to provide you with all that luxury… the 13 cars… the champagne every night…

The money probably went through the shredder as these people partied for having destroyed yet another life (sorry, sarcasm had to end somewhere ;)
