Re: So How's It Different From Gnutella?
Funny you should resurrect this thread right after major tracker pointers including Suprnova were just shut down!
But your statement sounds backwards -- "they are taking it from you" when you distribute copyrighted material? So that means every person selling copies of new Hollywood releases on the street corner is completely innocent? It's the people buying who are the only criminals?
And I never heard it was "illegal to own copyrighted material without copyright". In fact, I really doubt it is. (And I'm no lawyer.) It would kind of make things like, you know, BOOKS, illegal to possess.

| The difference is, your street corner seller is selling for money - that's the illegal act, not the providing of copyright goods, but the providing copyright goods *for sale* |
