    I was wondering whether P2P softwares are legal. I've been downloading a lot of files lately and i don't want a message such as-
    "St.Anger has sued you for illegal downloads"

    Depends on the laws where you live.


    The p2p software itself is totally legal, it's just a gateway, or a means of transfer. Says in their terms of service that they cannot be held liable for what gets shared on their network.

    Like Neil said, it depends on your laws and which state you live in. So if your in Canada you can download whole albums while in America, you can get sued for it.

    Firstly, get your head out of your ass. I never even said anything about not using the program

    Secondly, grow up. You're the one spamming,BTW, coming in here with no contribution to the thread, carrying out your personal vendetta against me.

    I suggest if you wish to be a member around here, you stop being an ass.

    Dude, calm down. You broke a rule. Get over it. You don't need to over react everytime a moderator tells you off. Oh and the whole "I'm not as immature as you think line" is as wrong as two jack rabbits making a porn film. I mean if you look at your posts you either:

    a) typ like this,,,,you,,,,know,,,,with,,,,the,,,multiple comma's and over react over anything a moderator does,,,,
    or
    b) you just use poor grammar.

    Programs are completely legal. Just depending on what you download and where you are.

    Canada - Legal.
    USA - Illegal
    UK - Illegal
    Europe - Most likely illegal.
    Sweden - Legal.

    I know you're banned and all, but maybe you'll read this.

    When you buy something and you download something, they will have the same bugs. However, more likely than not, the downloaded version will be more fucked than anything. :lol:
