    That's what it says. Gotta love the US legal system. They are morons most of the time. Reactionary politics. They don't understand how things work, do they?

    If your downloading you may have that song on CD already. If your sharing, then you're providing them freely to the public.



    Once again the leechers are riding on easy street.

    Maybe the theory is that by cutting off the supply, the problem will go away. The freeloaders aren't supplying content so they aren't really the problem.
