Of course we all know this is just total bull****, but what do you think about this?
-
*downloads more music*
-
*continues dowloading HL2:ep 1*
umm, yeah?
-
Hahahaha!! If you can't beat 'em, pretend you did....
-
I wonder if this is there quiet way of saying "...****, this isn't working guys, let's give up while we're still..not ahead?"
-
i keep looking for the BSG season 2 soundtrack
i cant find it yet, but it only came out today. im gonna go to some stores and look
-
RIAA =
Really
Idiotic
Annoying
Arseholes
-
the riaa was just pissed cause they were too stupid to think of doing file sharing first.
damn it emule, youre too god damn slow, must.... pirate.... music.... arrgh! :D
-
They have won, in a sense; there's no music worth pirating on the radio anymore.
-
well the RIAA can orally apply negative pressure to my sperm producing organs
-
I've never heard it called that before, I may have to..."put the term i my stolen pocket" and use it myself :lol:
-
No, they're correct. File downloading is taking off, and P2P is dying. Maybe it's because the idiots using P2P only have access to ****ty quality and improperly ripped tracks, and they're only just now realizing that. Hell, even Napster is better than the best Kazaa has to offer. I pay my $1.85 per album, and I honestly dont mind that expense, knowing that my copy is both legit and top quality.
-
kazaa is old news, Bittorrent has everything.
i'm also proudly wearing my "Music Pirate" t-shirt today

I hereby pronounce you "full of it".
Heck, if you want the HD versions of many shows, the only way to get them is via P2P.
-
I said Downloading, not Purchasing... i.e. Usenet.
-
Appearently you have never used eMule.
-
If anything, there are more seeders/leechers on Bit Torrent than ever.
-
Am I the only one who maintains a decent (>1) ratio on bit torrent, without having to seed afterwards?
-
I wouldnt know about BitTorrent anymore. I gave that up long ago. And don't get me ****ing started on eMule!
-
i used to use torrents untill metaltorrents went down, now i use emule. it seems to be better at getting hard to get albums. but its slow as ****.

_SLOW_ _AS_ _****_

Used to, then I got Azureus, which works much better then whatever crap programs I was using before.

So you freely admit that you don't bother looking for things on BitTorrent anymore, yet you claim that filesharing is dieing?
-
Private filesharing is still alive, but public filesharing is not used very commonly anymore. I suppose I should have clarified that. Too much **** in the stream, so to say.
-
So all of users on eMule are just ghost IPs?

I don't know how they get any stupider.
-
Me neither. Their "strategies" were even paroried here:

It's plain stupid, but I wouldn't be surprised to see them do something like that...
-
It's not a million miles from what Sony actually tried to do...
