Probably not. But who knows when they have many $s for lawyers to use the law to remove or block these services.

Your client uses the gnutella protocol to access files. Because this network is distributed its much harder for the RIAA to drag your client into the courts. Your software allow you to share files for any reason. It should never be against the law to share a file.

It is currently illegal to share copyright material, so if this can be shown to have occured, you may be arrested for "criminal" activity.

A large group of software developers would like to see a fully open and free information system distrubuted across the net with pseudynoumity and permanancy. This software is in development and promises to deliver much for the individual. Trust others to develop software that does provide true freedom of information.
