Why Canada is better than the U.S

[Devious]

Well earlier this year they were planning on overturning the court ruling, making it illegal to share files once again. I don't know if this has happened yet, or if it will happen, but I know a couple months back there was a lot of talk about it

Canadians are far less arrogant than Americans, only problem is their weather sucks

what are you talkin about our weather is gangsta. that is of course if you like cold weather

yea,thats when it becomes illegal. downloading them and burning them for personal use is fine.

ye i thought so
i dont do it anymore anyway

 

[EriMakaveli]

What if i download weed and smoke it but not sell it? Is that illegal?

PS: Toronto Has Beautiful Weather

Actually, elaborate on the technicalities.

I'm just wondering if my new Canadian IP will keep me out of the slammer

at the end of the day, it's not the leechers who get busted - it's those dumb shits who leave kazaa on 25/8 with a library of 10,000 mp3's. if you're serving music, then you should know the risks. then again, with technology these days, claiming ignorance when you get busted for the first time is always a get out of jail free card.

Yeahhhh Canada Rules !

 

[Get In The Van I Have Candy]

Oh no the RIAA is after me. Boo fuckin hoo. If youre tech savy enough you will be fine. Like Dante said its those idiots who have their peer software on 24/7 and sharing gig's and gig's of albums. Thats why I love IRC, anonymity.

Yup sunshine all week.

 

[ToopackShaker]

what about the levies on recordable media

 

[bigmack]

Yo bigmack, do you have a source on this? Because last I heard, the decision made in 2003 that p2p downloading in Canada is legal was going to be overturned. I looked for any info on a new decision being made and only found articles referring to the 2003 decision.

i got it off a website,im sure u can google it up, it was from may 2004 but the downloading wont be overturned.

what about the levies on recordable media

20 cents levy on each blank cd,there was gonna be a $25 tax on mp3 players but that didnt go through

 

[haunted]

Canada is better because when their planes crash everyone survives.

 

[_carmi]

that's one of the good reasons that make me proud to be canadian

 

[Preach]

^^
proud of the state approving its citizen being leeches?

if mp3 downloading was allowed all across the world there would be no music industry and thus no music to download. now there's a though.

 

[Flipmo]

^^ Stop being a sourpuss cause you can't download like us.

HAHAHAHAH, everyone point and laugh at this boy, make him feel ashamed of himself!

*points* HARHARHAR!

Canada is better than the US because of laws on downloading??? Jesus H Christ...

no U.S is better because spending time in jail is fun

 

[Zero Cool]

I'd put it like this;

California > Canada > Rest of U.S.

 

[critikaldesignz]

good luck with pollution

 

[The.Menace]

In the United States, they have a war on everything: the war on drugs, the war on terrorism, the war on cancer

I'm affraid, but I agree with bigmack.
