pointers not content?

Torrents are merly pointers right? Basicly a go to there to get this. Torrents themselves are not the copyrighted content. Torrent sites are just sites pointing where to go. information.

Their are many books that tell you how to do illegal things and tell you where you can get the materials. I've seen plenty of books on hacking at Barnes & Noble.

How are these any different. They are both how to and where to get. Doesn't that fall under free speech and/or freedom of information?

Amazing!

I must thank Leil for the fascinating insight into the number of Bit-Torrent users...

With more than Ten Billion currently pirating music regularily it's not a wonder the RIAAss. is running scared.

The dead are not just walking the streets, they're stealing our Copyright!

I agree with Leil

I just choose to be more polite about it. ;)

I download torrents BECAUSE of the RIAA lawsuits. My favorite artist is Bon Jovi, I own most of his stuff illegally, because if 10% or less goes to the band, I´m not interested in buying it legally. If Bon Jovi were to call me, I´d very happily hand over $25 per cd, because I love the band. But paying $18(including tax) to enrich the RIAA doesn´t sound like a good use of my money.

(The captcha is isuxvum; very suggestive, I must say.)

Go to Hell MPAA, RIAA

absolutely 0, they make profits every year. it only goes up, cry more b!tches. here you go, suck a C0CK.

trying to cheat your customers' money, we are a smarter generation, we do "test drive" before buying your movies, then finding 99% of your release are sh!t crap just crap, and now you are angry that you can't charge us for those "test drive".

i saw some one wrote something like this from another site, "some person drives a Toyota, then hit my car, i will sue Toyota for selling the car which hit my car? oh in fact, i should sue the fuxking dealer which carried the Toyota which hit my car." catch us if you can, catch the entire 10+ billion bit torrent users world wide.

we will fuxking put a torrent server up on Mars very soon, MPAA: "damn you Mars people, damn you".

please make fuxking sense MPAA, 0 torrents are being removed, and 0 torrent will ever be removed, remove yourself from the film industry, we don't need your bull sh!t.

..|.. the middle one is for you MPAA. the insane judge must be one of your friend, 110million, LOL, ROFL, LMAO. 

a fuxking perfect April fools joke, slave the torrent spy staffs for life, no one will have 110M to pay you dumb fuxks.

Stupid judges

"If the MPAA were allowed to win the case, then Google would have to shut down because it is possible to use it to link to copyrighted material."

That is so true.

So the question is: does the next judge also need a new shiny car with vanity plates like the previous ones?

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
