Have you ever watch a music video at Youtube?
Have you ever watch a home made video with music in it?
Have you ever watch a trailer there?
if so, you too are a thief.
And i'll assume you saw the mickey mouse image.

YouTube hosts the material, not you. That is why THEY receive the DMCA Takedown notice. With a torrent file, no one hosts the content, so they go after the users who actually download the file.
Also, copyright infringement has to be willful. I had no idea that Mickey Mouse image was there and I could easily prove in a court of law that I never intended to download it. You, on the other hand, would be the one in trouble, not DSLReports or anyone else who viewed it. | |

Yes, you are not intentionally doing it but you are. And you definitely are if you watch the videos.
If Justin fails to remove the image, then yes, DSLr is hosting pirated content.
My point: Copyrighted content is everywhere on the net, it's in your IM's, your email, your favorite forum/blog etc.
Where do you draw the line if you are talking sides with the **AA's?
You say im a thief if i download the DVD screener of the new Batman but you have no problem if i download a Mickey Mouse png file.
Where does it end?
