said by zod5000:I'm confused about the demonoid thing, because there was a court ruling a few years ago that said it was ok to share files via p2p for music. According to demoid Canadians are blocked because of notice from the CRIA (which is our version of the RIAA). However, the CRIA would only be defending music which isn't illegal here? I'm thinking Demonoid got the letter and didn't want to deal with it, but I don't think the CRIA has a leg to stand on.
The CRIA is only 'represents' the RIAA in america. They're not a Canadian RIAA. And they don't have a leg to stand on, Demonoid just panicked.
