Re: Notice of Action under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act
Thanks for the reply. the problem with staying away from copyrighted material is you cant tell what is and is not freely distributable, so I guess I will assume it all is not freely distributable.
Thanks again and any other chime-ins are very welcome (I guess I need to have a reassurance that the FBI or CIA won't come banging on my door!) |

I didn't know they were sending these out via e-mail though, all the ones I got were US Postal mail. |

It takes a bit of research to download in a reasonably safe manner. My first "pirated" download of music was from this site:
»www.kyoko.org/Extra-songs-e.html
The music is no longer available on published CDs. The guy running the site still has his notice that, if anybody who owns the copyright requests that he remove the music, he will. My favorite track is, "Try Your Luck Again", by Cindy. I don't recall which episode of the show it is from, but the song, and the mood of the episode is very poignant. The show is available on DVD in the U.S.A from Viz: Maison Ikkoku
In general, if the title is owned by one of the companies associated with the RIAA, the MPAA, or one other (I think) group, whose name eludes me, it is definitely not safe.

As for the copyright infringement notice take heed of it and stop sharing that content and also stay off the network concerned because companies like Media Sentry that work for the copyright owners now have you flagged .
