the chances of my getting flesh eating disease are about the same as a me spontaneously combusting or being shot by lighting. in other words, I don’t consider my chances of getting in some kind if trouble enough to worry about

I live in the US but im not worried at all. I got kazaa-lite (the latest version they made) which prevents the authorities from seeing your ip when you download music, so basically they can't get me at all. And even if they did, i don't share, i just download. They are going after the people sharing 1000+ files.

Here is what you do - every 200 songs or so that you have burn it on a cd and delete them and start over, and don't let anyone download off of you, or you could just not download and buy the cd, or only download at your friends house.

I'm still using it...but I don't have THAT many songs. there's under 200 on this computer, and another 500 or so (some doubles, and some of my sister's) on another computer.

I'm not saying that pirating is right, but for all all you people that don't live in the United States... I don't think you have to worry about RIAA for now. I think you're fine.

Here's some good news for Euro KaZaA users.

Quote:

The Supreme Court of the Netherlands has ruled that P2P software such as Kazaa is legal. In doing so, they rejected the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry's (IFPI) demands that Kazaa distribution be stopped and its owners (Sharman Networks) forced to pay royalties for the files transfered on their network. The IFPI also wanted the Kazaa's code modified to filter out copyrighted material.
