VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Subject: Re: share ware Author: Nick Nite [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 18:02:54 01/30/03 Thu In reply to: Ron 's message, "Re: share ware" on 19:18:37 01/29/03 Wed Ron, I got ya. I don't usually listen to the morning show only because my bedtime is 3 AM. :) But really though, I doubt the piracy will ever end. In fact, even if this lawsuit against the Kazaa user goes in favor of the music industry, they win, and it causes other suits to be won in the industry's favor, then there will only be other "Kazaa's" out there, waiting to feed the stealers greed. And it's not just music, but like Bob said, the entire entertainment industry as a whole. Books, CDs, video games, computer programs, etc., can all be easily accessed for free on programs such as WinMX, Kazaa, eDonkey, Bear Share, and many others. Everytime it seems that one is going the way of Napster, five others pop up to replace it. I think we will eventually go the way of Korea and have a Cyber Police, as well as strict online laws. I think then, and only then, will prices come down, and maybe the little guy at the CD factory can sleep easier. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
