Pro Fools is flying high
Default Worried about the RIAA

I'm not worried. My life is so borring i'd love to go to court again. (I haven't been caught for years.) But if the press scared other users out of file sharing them ultimately us "ProFools" get no files I have an idea...

It's stupid but as a last resort change all the names to start with "Z" as to avaoid RIAA scans. For instance: ****
That way we are not using the artists "likelyness". ---------------------------------------Or --------------------------------------------------
Someone needs to write a Cheact sheet and put it out in cyberspace. It could look like this:
*******........................................... .....................................
------------Or it could look like this:

*******

Whatever...This would misslead them and the Riaa Would have to download the actuall songs to see what they are. and to take it a little further, we could browse THEIR shared folder and see what they have and make a judgement whether they are "Cool" or not.
Whatever...

Angry Well, I really AM Worried About Them...

I understand full well that the odds of actually being prosecuted for file sharing mp3's is small, very small. You know what, though? No way no how is it worth the risk in my mind. Now that those SOBs have started going after the sharers, I think I am done. I am saving what I do have and then I think I am getting rid of LimeWire and my filesharing days are over. The community has no reason to mourn that, I have less than 200 files. Like I said, I just do not think it is worth even a tiny risk. Until a really solid way is found to block the intrusions of those people, count me out.
