I had a great idea, Yall let me know what you think. Ok, The IRAA is really cracking down on this file (mp3) sharing thing, right? Here is the deal, The people that have mp3's on there computer are not "illegal", due to the fact that they probably purchased the cd and converted the .wav files to mp3 format, so they can use them in the mp3 player etc.... Ok, what if there was a worm (virus) that was created by someone that when infected someones computer it searched there entire harddrive for mp3's and then connected to p2p software and shared the files without the owner of the computer knowing. Then would that not be a huge loophole for the defense? I mean the owner did nothing at all wrong, other than catch a worm somewhere off the internet. even if he or she didnt have the worm, it would still be a defense to the owner of the internet connection. NOT THAT THIS SHOULD BE DONE BY ANYONE, BUT IT WAS JUST A THOUGHT. I wonder if there is already something out there like this.

Yup very good idea. Maybe post it on a newsgroup somewhere and a virus writer will pick it up hehe. You could keep the worm on the computer (maybe not actually running), and its mere existance on your machine would be your defense. Or alternatively you could let it run when you get sent the email from the RIAA.
