The problem is, we may not have another 6 months left:
The Conyers-Berman bill would operate under the assumption that each copyrighted work made available through a computer network was copied by others at least 10 times for a total retail value of $2,500. That would bump the activity from a misdemeanor to a felony, carrying a sentence of up to five years in jail. http://www.cnn.com/2003/TECH/interne...eut/index.html
