Title: Downloading music
Post by: HIPPI on December 29, 2003, 12:49:28 AM: Since people are getting fined now for downloading music (Kazaa users), what are alternative peer-to-peer file sharing services?

Is it true that you can't get caught if you use Kazaa Lite?

Dynamic IP won't help you if they find out your IP, the ISP's keep track of each IP you have had assigned for a long time, and a static IP will of course not make the case better.

RIAA lost against Verizon in court, so ISP's no longer have to give out names/adress if a private org. asks.. which means that lawsuits is more difficult for RIAA now.. 8)

But then again, non-Americans need not worry about getting sued.

No, you can't.
Not unless your country have specific laws against it, and most countries don't.
