    how legit is a website providing privacy services like torrentprivacy.com?

    what are expert downloaders recommendations for avoiding any issues with getting busted for downloading?

    if you are worried don't download. dont have terabytes worth of music or movies and dont sell music or movies and you should be good.

    stretch this is the second topic you have made on this subject. I was very nice to warn you the first time you did it but now I have to move the ip into the "red" zone.

    We will be watching you very closely. Your refusal to let it go alarms me and even after a very very firm warning you still go about asking question, in a open forum I may add. Not very smart. Do yourself a favor and drop this subject.

    I use megadownload.net for music... full cd's...

    it's not torrenting...

    it's rapidshare and megaupload...

    it's begginning to get hard to download and find most of the music you want on torrent sites.

    I don't think anyone has been "busted" for downloading. Usually, it's for uploading, and there are few cases for linking.

    Oh people get busted...

    but it's more like factories of piracy.... downloading and downloading alot of content that is then used to sell...

    And yeah they are mostly after the sites.... and the distributors..

    That's why I'm not worried really... if I like the torrent enough I'll buy the movie/cd

    he probably makes up 96% of users here on st... so many trolls created by him it's ridiculous but when you don't have to do like go to work or anything i guess you can sit on your ass all day and act as if you're 14 playing around on the net.

    I do that... I get all my music that way...

    You should be worried if you put these albums out there...

    For example.. I get all my movies from Axxo... on demonoid, because his dvd rips are leaked before they hit the shelves..

    He's at risk...

    Most people in this thread, it seems, have not been following the geek news. Fortunately for you all, I am a huge geek and on top of the torrenting issues.

    FTA:

    According to reports, the Record Industry Association of America, or RIAA, is changing its strategy for prosecuting illegal peer-to-peer downloaders. The group will now work with Internet Service Providers (ISPs) rather than attacking individuals.

    Download all you want, you won't be attacked for it.
