Our heads don't flap around all funny, we say "about" the normal way, and we don't have Celene Dion...

Re: File Sharing legal in Canada??
 

Haha, that's not going to change the rate at which I download files.. but I guess it's an interesting fact.

Re: File Sharing legal in Canada??
 

I think it just means we can share files of Canadian artists for free.. not american.... And I think Americans can share Canadian artists too...

I could be wrong though.

Re: File Sharing legal in Canada??
 

filesharing... there was no mention that it only applies to music. therefor according to that ruling... Movies, Games, Software, and music. filesharing is free.

And i dont think the US can sue canadians for sharing american music.

Re: File Sharing legal in Canada??
 

Is there any way we could own you back?

Re: File Sharing legal in Canada??
 

Well, you guys get a lot of free magazine subscriptions.

Re: File Sharing legal in Canada??
 

Downloading music is only free to canadians, its not for americans. Its not just canadian artists...i think. So pretty much its every band except Metallica who take cry brakes between shows. (im joking, i like Metallica) And we Canadians have many hings that Americans dont have....Like free music downloads, Free Healthcare, Pamela Anderson, Pamela Andersons boobs, (but i think they were made in china...) And on Canadian T.V. you can say Sh*t, Bi*ch, all those good words, And Canadian T.V. allows porn....highfive to porn...

RE: Re: File Sharing legal in Canada??
 

Are they exactly the same?

I think you mean "it's" or "it is" not "its". Downloading music is not canadian artists? Therefore you are.Ahem. I think you mean "it's" or "it is" not "its". Downloading music is every band except Metallica who take cry brakes between shows?

Re: File Sharing legal in Canada??
 

back to the topic @ hand...

File sharing shouldn't be copyright infringement...

the only people that should be prosecuted are the people making money off of it, such as Re-Distributors/Resellers.

How does the file get on the file swapping program? Someone must've had the CD and ripped it into mp3.
So they did buy the CD. They are just sharing it with people they don't know. SHARING should be a god given right...
