addicted to p2p mp3

@dsl.lsan03.pacbell.n

is it illegal (will i get caught)

Is it illegal to download mp3 on p2p from neighbors house???

dont want to use my own so RIAA wont bug...

but since there is an open WI-FI next door can i use it?

how about the free municipal WI-FI in Long Beach CA city for mp3's?

if it is copyrighted, it is still considered piracy. The RIAA won't know you downloaded it, but the neighbour - so - you had best hope he doesn't know you are doing it. It's like borrowing his screwdriver and not saying,.. or using his water main to water your grass.

It's no different than "borrowing" your neighbor's lawnmower while he's off on vacation; it's theft. Bottom line: the service belongs to someone else, not you. I totally agree that he's asking for trouble by not securing his network, but car theft is still theft if the owner left the keys in the car.

It's especially illegal when you are using someone elses equipment to do something else that is illegal. If you online actions were to get traced down it would be traced down to him. He would be the one having to file the legal defense.
