Re: 126 "Notice of Claim of Copyright Infringement" Emails
said by pyro0  :I've been searching around for what, exactly, I should do as far as replying to them. I'm not a lawyer so understand that as I tell you this: Unless the message was via certified mail or some other track able method of correspondence, I would just ignore the email. If they're coming from comcast it's just a CYA move on Comcast's part and I imagine all of the replies are never read, just filed somewhere in case a lawyer comes after them.
If you're really worried about it you need to stop trading copyrighted files unless you're reasonably sure the holder of said copyright is ok with it. Ignoring the moral stands and thoughts on what should be with regard to intellectual property rights; the copyright holders are in the right legally at this point, if you trade their files they might come after you and have a fair chance of winning. Besides most of the stuff coming out of the popular movie and music industry is utter crap anyway.
