Default File Corrupt (not like every other post on here!)

Everybody keeps saying they get corrupt files, but for me it's only been for the newest of the new songs. I do believe it is a copyright problem, but I just wanna know, if you can't share them because of this, how do so many people have them if they are copyrighted? I'm sure not everyone put it on their computer from the actual CD's. And another thing, how do they make copyright music like that where the downloads corrupt at the end of the download? Thanks a lot guys!

Well, to the best of my knowledge there are people out there that has a job of scrambling up corrupt files in order to protect the "real" files. I.e. deliberately putting up corrupt stuff, so that a particular track/tracks cannot be "illegally" (rolls eyes) distributed easily and quickly.

Of course, there may be other reasons apart from this.

Hope it helps, may p2p forever live!

How should a copyright avoid copying of the files? Or are you talking about a copy prtoection?

You can also break copy protections which are usually on the CD, after you copied the file, the copy protection shouldn´t be a problem.
