| 1229552 | 2011-09-08 03:33:00 | How easy is to get caught? Are the authorities (or your ISP) monitoring you or are they monitoring known websites? If the latter is the case then it might be fairly easy to side step the monitoring by downloading from a not so popular site. There is an alternative to downloading music that I have heard of that, in the end, amounts to the same thing as downloading but you are not downloading in the way that you might expect, but you can still have the music you want. Apparently it is not as fast as downloading but you are still able to capture the music you want without being caught. Sounds fascinating. |

See my blog for a bit of a summary on it. What about direct downloads such as from fileserve or rapidshare? Edit: They don't lol, just read your blog. Good read. |

| 1229555 | 2011-09-08 04:41:00 | IMO there's no reason to be pirating music any more, there are more than enough legal ways of getting it. The most plausible item to be pirating here is TV shows, as there is no legal way - without falsifying your address (physical or IP) and obtaining from overseas. Just my 2c. |

Just wish all these legal places used .flac instead of crappy MP3 until then I will continue buying CD's |

| 1229558 | 2011-09-08 08:41:00 | ironically FLAC also stands for Free Legal Advice Centers. | icow (15313) | ||
