Originally posted by Timber Loftis: Yorick, as NightStalker pointed out, you confuse the pracitce of "filesharing" with the reproduction of copyrighted materials. Filesharing has more uses, and is not per se illegal in and of itself. However, the current famous use of filesharing has involved copyright infringement, so the issue gets confused. File sharing is a tool that can be exploited, just like burning CDs. In each case, there are instances where the TOOL of file sharing can be used perfectly legally. No slam on protecting copyright is intended here, I'm just pointing out that people should be able to use file sharing to share files legally.

Fair enough. Good points.

I point this out in part because I know NightStalker has been working on ways to prevent the illegal transfer of copyrighted files while preserving the practice of legal file sharing.

That's awesome News. Good one Nightstalker. [img]smile.gif[/img]
