Wow, apparently this is a big crackdown.
Fine with me, use the resources to stop criminals. Not the p2p users!

Isn't there more important things for people to do (besides helping the rich) like say helping the sick and/or poor? When will this sh** every stop?

Naples is very corrupt so they must not have been giving the Naples police enough money to look the other way, live and learn... :D

Pirates are always gonna be pirates-but what gets me is how the RIAA and MPAA are trying to dictate the we consumers can't make ligitimate backups of HDDVD and or Bluray discs. Piracy is one thing (and it's wrong no matter how you try to make it not), backup copies are another thing all together. I for one am happy to see AnyDVD taking the fight down to the trenches.

Okay RuPtUrE, I'll concede. Downloading copyrighted material through p2p apps is illegal. No one has ever questioned that point.
Guess what else is illegal. Making a copy of a DVD you own as a backup. Transferring a video tape movie into a digital format.
Laws are slow to be written and as history proves are always behind the times.
So, to make you happy we'll equate your average p2p user to well established gangsters and corrupt governments.
Good outlook on the whole "problem". You are clearly a mental giant who
has covered all the bases.
I'm sure you'll find many supporters on this site.

Back to the subject!! You state to go after the criminals. Criminals being the people selling copyrighted material. Yet you state not the P2P users. What do you think P2P users do? Share illegal content!! Duh!! No brainer. And im not stating that doing things legit is right neither. Why shouldn't I be able to back up a copy of my dvd! Im just stating that when you pass it off to someone else who didn't pay for it....well thats a different story. P2P...DEAD!

In good old days I used to transfer my LPs to cassettes & listen toi them while driving cross country.
I also used to record live music from some of the FM stations which were broadcasting instrumental music 24 hours a day.
Now is that piracy or what? By our country's laws anything that is broadcast on air is beyond the purview of copyright laws. So how does one deal with that?

Not sure where your from but it's not illegal to back up a copy of a dvd you legally own for private use only.
to RuPtUrE: (newbie) by the name just means your not that active on this particular website.
