Steven P. Administrators Posted July 16, 2004 Author Administrators Share Posted July 16, 2004 Moderators and Admins will decide for you if your judgement is clouded (but obvious disregard for our rules may also include a warning or restriction). If a software costs money and you are discussing how you cracked or got it illegally then its against the ruleset. This also applies to Movies and Music files.

But if you buy 'em and use DVD Decrypter and/or DVD Shrink, for example, to make backups, it is ok to talk about the software? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the way it used to be. Not sure about what it is now with the DMCA not having been fully tested in court in terms of individual fair use. Hope that the industry decision to allow some personal backup in the next gen DVD's will set a precedent at the very least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt74441 Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 Download them from mirrors like the rest of us do? Well distros are starting to be distributed through BT. Much faster, especially right when they are released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bearded Kirklander Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 Well distros are starting to be distributed through BT. Much faster, especially right when they are released. Actually, I can easily get 160+kbps from a mirror downloading Mandrake but in BT I get no more than 40 on a very good day. BT seems to average between 5-15 normally for me, though sometimes it goes higher. Azureus with the 6881 port forwarded and all. I guess Linux distros are not as popular on the BT scene as they could be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OPaul Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 Either way this rule is not about to stop us from talking about BT or any other P2P application. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
