- Downloading is illegal
-
Why?, because you can't be sure the site your D/L from is the legal distributer for the media. Case in point - Apple Itunes - They had released some music they weren't licensed to upload, are the Downloader guilty of a crime. NO!
By law it technically. You make the point though that proving an illegal download has occured is too hard to do for civil court let alone criminal court. So by nature of the crime being unenforcable is what makes kind of quasi legal.
What they do is use the distribution part the copyright law. If you distribute copies of copyright works for cash in Canada they can really nail you to wall. If you freely give it out you fall into that library like area, that's the part that has the CRIA up in arms. Not much you can do about the law is pretty clear there. - Posted by: voska Posted on: 07/13/04 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
