how likely do u reckon it is that the police will one day
enter your home, look at your mp3s and dl software and
fucking do you for it? i mean how would they ever find out
about you?

so far i think the chances to get caught are as big as the
chances to win the lottery... downloading mp3s are like
lottery in reverse: if you don't get caught, which happens
99.9999% of the time so far, you win the mp3, if you get
caught well... you're fucked.

but things might change, for the better or for the worse.

it's been slowly changing for the worse for a long time
now...

i guess that they hire hackers to find out who downloads
what...
This is the thing that would make sense... Or they just go
in there as normal members, and see who does what... that's
how people have been caught... I think we don't know half
of what they can do.

that's what I call music 2"

they ask the internet access providers who have the most
data traffic among their customers... and then they take a
look at what the transferred data is... at least it's one of
their methods, or so i've heard.

The recent UK sting was only for people sharing over 9000
tracks. Assuming on average there are 10 tracks an album,
they have downloaded more than 900 albums. Albums cost in
the region of £10 each therefore they have downloaded
£9000+ worth of albums. They paid compensation of £2,200.
Even when compared to legit music download services they
are getting the tracks on the cheap.

you're luckier for that in the UK then : )

in france if you get caught you're REALLY fucked... you can
commit suicide if you're poor and got caught, really. no one
had to pay that much so far, but it can go as far as € 300
000 and 3 years of prison. they're just completely crazy.
