Default Are you worried about being prosecuted for using p2p software?

With the music industry starting to sue individuals for file sharing are you worried that you might be prosecuted?
And do you think music companies will succeed in their fight P2P companies.

wish someone would explain this stuff to my bro, feel like my head is sore from butting a brick wall, he don't seem to get the fact that even though you can pay £18 sumat for limewire, but its still peer to peer

Oh an yeah i'm worried when my bro is on my case to use my internet connection and pay for a percentage of it, then download illegal music. But who will really get done for it? not him cos his laptop won't be here to prove it. I will, will he pay the bill whatever they may serve upon us? no he'll expect me to do so.

Will he watch my family starve, his 3 nieces and nephew? No he'll walk away with no worries no cares what happens to us.

Just tell him to use anonymous p2p.

And to check the Wikipedia for Infos.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anonymous_P2P

Simply don't let anyone in on your connection with non-anonymous p2p-software.

And don't let yourself get all fuzzy eyed.

Oh well, then I'll be frank:

I share both, Music and Movies, and also Documents (txt, rtf, pdf, odt).

Those are Documents by my own making plus some I am allowed (or even encouraged) to share by their authors.

If you need something to share, just IM' me.

Besides: @GirPlanet: That's your fraggin' brother, so he will very ungladly pay your bill alongside you, if you get hit by that chance of one to I-know-not-how-much, except if he's a <self-censored >, and if he's a <self-censored >, you shouldn't let him in on your connection, so your post seems a little weeny bit unreasonable/fear-pretending/useless (choose your type of post yourself).
And if you are afraid and don't use anonymous p2p, get a grip on yourself and take a glimpse at wikipedia.
And if your bro doesn't use ano-p2p, even though he knows you are afraid, he's still a <self-censored >.
Have fun, or at least try to look like it

No,
Let me elaborate, I dont share music or download music. I get all the music I need straight from digital TV.

Movies I dont share or download movies made in hollywood. I do download a lot of porn, both image and video, but none of it is covered by MPAA members! I get all the older movies straight from digital TV, Blockbuster think I have a handicaped relative who watches 4 movies a day

I share and download a lot of jokes and funny clips etc etc, also not covered by MPAA!

I download and share a lot of documents, many people "publish" their books for free on line these days, I am an avid reader.

Mostly I only use and write "freeware", so programs are not an issue for me.

I rarely download movies or such from torrents and only have about 70 music files...should I even be worried about being prosecuted?
