Squire Posted June 27, 2003 Report Share Posted June 27, 2003 So is Kazaa going to fade into oblivian like Napster and Morpheus or are they going to hold on? I personally hate the RIAA and think they should keep out of affairs the obviously know nothing about.Rock on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Posted June 28, 2003 Report Share Posted June 28, 2003 I can't imagine these types of programs going away, because there's really nothing illegal about providing a means to share information. When all the legislation fails to destroy Kazaa, I wouldn't be surprised if the record companies start putting files up that damage computers when they are downloaded. This would result in some weird lawsuits, but I know at least one senator thinks it is a good idea. Hopefully, it won't come to this. Carl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott Posted June 28, 2003 Report Share Posted June 28, 2003 yeah this is a lot what a lot cd labels are doing to try and prevent burning, you see a lot of newer cd's will delete themselves or screw up the songs if you burn 'em Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 1, 2003 Report Share Posted July 1, 2003 I read last week where the RIAA was going to start searching the internet for sites that offer MP3's for download and start taking legal action against them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valhalla Posted July 2, 2003 Report Share Posted July 2, 2003 Even if Kazaa was somehow shut down, the man would never be able to keep up with the sites. As long as more are created, more will need to be shut down. It will be a wild goose chase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 2, 2003 Report Share Posted July 2, 2003 That's true, IM. It would be more than a full-time job tracking these sites and taking legal action against them or at least sending them emails threatening to do so. I believe it's really more of a bluff to try and decrease the number of sites. I'm sure sites will come and go, but they will always be there.

Aunt_Acid Posted July 27, 2004 Report Share Posted July 27, 2004 I will always miss Napster. Kazaa was the only thing that came close to its greatness, but it sort of sucks now. The one I use (or used until my dad disallowed it because he was claiming it installed spyware on our computer that was already there) is Ares. It is pretty nice. They have a lot of songs on there, and it is well organized. I would reccomend to anyone looking for a new shareware program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
