Conaire04 Posted March 26, 2004 Share Posted March 26, 2004 I was watching the news yesterday when they started talking about the BPI giving file swappers? one last warning, if they are found downloading music they could be brought to court. I find this ridiculous and not a lot of people are going to be happy. What I would like to know is if I happen to one day receive a letter one day accusing me of download music would they be able to do anything since I live in Northern Ireland. I'm Irish and believe I?m ruled from the republic, would I get away with this? Or would they still be able to sue me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banzai Posted March 26, 2004 Share Posted March 26, 2004 it dose seem silly but at the same time if you brake the law you deserve whatever you get, come toward the light and stop downloading music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john smith 1924 Veteran Posted March 26, 2004 Veteran Share Posted March 26, 2004 I remember reading a press release from them, suggesting that basically, if people dont start buying cds again they are going to start sueing; seems as if people didn't really think that was a reasonable deal.

Si Veteran Posted March 26, 2004 Veteran Share Posted March 26, 2004 Seems reasonable to me. Now they need to release some cds worth buying (ie import some european dance cds pleeeeeeeaaaaseeeee :() Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john smith 1924 Veteran Posted March 27, 2004 Veteran Share Posted March 27, 2004 Please not any more bloody dance tracks - Toms formula for a hit with dances fans 1. take a nice bit of music (often a classical piece- but people dont like to think its classical != cool) 2. Add an appauling + annoying beat to it 3. Release 4. Profit! The music industries are however catching on to this fact, that they need to cater for the other cash rich market (asides from kids 7-16); adults. Groups like the doves, the thrills, and other acts based around the prescident coldplay set are going to make money for the industry IMO> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
