There are better things for prosecutors and the courts to focus on.

this says it all, but since the record industry has nothing to do with the countries national security, it has all the time in the world to take people to court. even innocent ones at that.

I'm going to take this picture and modify it, so that at the top it says: 'I steal music'. I know! I will make a tee shirt out of it and wear it constantly. hmm...do you think i will get sued for copyright infringement???

Ok, changing your status to banned, is gay. It's really annoying. Any solutions?

Well, I was told to see when their last post was. View their posts, and see if it's likely if they are banned. Changing your status to banned is silly - just confuses people lol

Good article, I say theres no way they can destroy someones PC physical.. I mean we have system restore to restore to earlier point.. They could cause software havoc.
Well end up getting a patch or file to install on the pc, that will block out their threats and the way they could ruin your pc.. Buying a new pc, is cheaper then buying and replacing the albums.

All they have to do is create a program that will either destroy your bios, or force a low -level format on the next boot.
