  1. Comment - RIAA Sues LimeWire Over Piracy

    (Aug 10, 2006 - 9:11 AM)

    It's sad that there are so-called adults out there that feel if you don't share their view, you lack morals and that everything is black and white. The simple fact of the matter is you can tell from their posts that they've already fallen into blindly following whatever law is passed. Their used to be laws that forbade the use of lipstick, so who ever put it on anyone is immoral. Bright. These people have very little faith in the human race, are bitter about their current lives and feel since they have bend over and take it everyone else should. I actually feel bad for them but I have other things to take care of. The real criminals I've seen use Limewire to copy an album and try and sell it. Whatever. I'm done. You can't reach people who are that preachy, bitter and cynical. You already defined the legal definition of stealing and they're retort is, you're young. Which of course you must be if you don't agree with them. Notice in many of the posts when you answer with a comeback to a remark they read you either see, Grow UP, you're a child or well you're still stealing. Don't waste precious energy arguing with these people. Someone that bitter and cynical over life as to just accept whatever they're told they must is to be pitied.

    I already stated earlier I have been the victim of stealing several times and other far worse acts. If they get caught all I would want is for them to pay what I paid for it. It's an item and though it's being stolen cost me, I'm not going to make an even bigger issue of it. I wouldn't want them to go to jail or anything, just pay for it.

    Yes, in the eyes of the law I am committing a crime, but I'm not going to feel immoral over a song. Yes I am a criminal. But it's not that big a deal. I'm not selling it, I'm not using it for anything other than personally listening to it and when they sell the song again, I'll buy it, so again no one is being harmed. Illegally downloading a song is not on par with rape or murder. I shouldn't have to point out why. That should be clear.

    "I wish I could play 6-year old for a while."

    Your retort is very insightful. :)

    In this case the law being just and right is a matter of opinion. As you see there are people on here who don't agree with that particular law. Killing on par with downloading a song? Didn't we cover this before. As far as killing being 100% wrong there are some who could debate that as well, such as when you're life is threatened. A child was murdered and you killed that person. Are they wrong? Some say yes, some say no. It still boils down to individual morals. Just because someone doesn't share your view on something as minor as a song doesn't make them evil incarnate either. It's just a silly song as you guys have pointed out so what's the big deal. If you don't want to illegally download, that's your choice. I can't decide that for you.
