    RIAA After DC?

    Hey, just a few questions on the riaa sueing traders issue. im really sorry if these questions have come up already.

    1) is the RIAA after DC (direct connect) network, because i heard that they are only scanning the fasttrack network.

    2)Are the scanning for people who sharing over like 20gigs or something? is there a like a limit or something.

    3) If the RIAA catch you, do they give u a warning, like they send u a letter saying stop sharing or clear out your hard disk, and if u do it again, then they sue u.

    Thanx, so these questions have come up already!

    i saw mediaforce bots scanning when i ran a hub 6 months ago, and i'm sure they still do

    they sent a supoena to a person sharing 8! files, so there is no magic number

    i wouldn't touch a public hub with a 10 foot pole

    I agree with Notbob. They have been at it for a while. On DC for music in particular, I would definately recommend going with private hubs.

    Since its inception almost 30 years ago, the internet has been transformed from a primitive device for sharing thoughts and ideas, into a massive network where people pay to connect and read advertisements they don't want, while calling each other "asshats".
