That is pretty nasty.

However our nearest UK equivalent is likely to be paying huge fines for data loss.

BT deleted info. on 20,000 subscribers which could have been used against them

KaZaA is really old school that was from 2006! With more modern methods its almost untraceable, only ones they can target are high uploaders.

I personally use Spotify for most music needs, millions of tracks, excellent quality, all free, just an advert every 5-8 tracks.

I download no songs nor films, so I should be ok!!

No way though would someone ever get $1.5 dollars out of me!!

Thanks Tunnie!

Trouble is I wouldn't really know what to do with any downloaded!  I just listen to my vinyls, CD's, and if I want anything special I go to YouTube!

I am just old fashioned, and still love playing real records, or at worst CD's!!

I even still get a great kick out of smelling warm valve radios, when I can get near one!  A childhood remembered

I've still got a valve Fenton-Weill Black Star guitar amp. Sounds good once its warmed up.

it does not download, it streams, unless you get premium version to store them offline. Think of it as radio, but you can choose what you want, and no annoying DJ's

Its great app 

You can get mobile version which keeps tracks offline, drop a track into playlist on your PC and straight away it can be available on mobile. tenner a month, unlimited tracks.

I personally don't use mobile version, i have other means for music on the go thats free

They can be cleverer than that, Mr Imber

Additionally, you are personally responsible for the security of your own network...

Explain security to the non experts though

i dont download music unless i pay for it. it is wrong and it is illegal. all my 100s of albums and films are all paid for.
