I'm one of those people with none of those options. Yes, it's definitely still wrong. Just because we don't have the option, doesn't mean it's morally / ethically right and or legal.

"The first one is whether copyright infringement as I think she was part of really hurts content producers. If someone is unwilling to pay a couple dollars for a movie in iTunes, you are not likely to buy the DVD either, thus, it's not a lo

It's taken me three hours to really think about your comment, and I can't really think of a satisfying response. Your hyperbole aside, I think this is apples and oranges. I don't think it's a comparable situation. People playing Nirvana in

I've hijacked this thread enough, but I'd love to post this question separately. Libraries are an institutionalised form of piracy. Am I wrong here? Thoughts? I've just had a philosophical discussion with my Dad about piracy and this was on

What do you mean? I think most people know it's illegal when they go to download (or view) a movie on the 'net. Obviously photographs and text is a lot harder, but movies are pretty clear due to the cost that goes into production.

I sort of agree with you, and I sort of don't. The reason for me is not because I don't feel the money goes to the creators (because I think the creators of movies and musical pieces are very well compensated), it's because here in Australi

My comment doesn't directly relate to the issue in the article (how she's being put in jail early) but I'll go ahead anyway. Does anyone honestly think piracy should go unpunished? People that upload movies, music, games etc should be punis

Mike, not the OP but which features are you opening up? This question is not attacking you, i'm just genuinely curious. I'm in the WordPress business ( http://thewp.co ) and would love to offer this to my clients!

You've got to bear in mind that this is domains moved off GoDaddy's nameservers , and I imagine a large percentage of transfered domains would already have non-godaddy nameservers.

None of my friends have pseudonyms, none of my extended network do either, it's all full, real names. I'm of the belief Facebook enforces proper names (even for Snoop Dogg!)
