***** THE RIAA!!! - InsaneMachine, on 02/09/2008, -3/+58Here is a tip. You don't put a sig on a site that doesn't have the option to do it. We don't digg you down to oblivion. Sound good?
- kris33, on 02/09/2008, -3/+45No spam = lol?
No viruses = meh
Fast downloads = WTF??
Recommending Rapidshare = eh?
Signing your post = ...
Guess why you get dugged down. Pirate Bay is not a great tracker at all, it actually sucks. It is the people and the ideology behind it that rules! - Disinterested, on 02/09/2008, -1/+27I'm moving to Sweden
- TuxedosRevenge, on 02/09/2008, -2/+28Ahem.
Linux. No, I'm not saying its superior, anything like that. You want free OS and software titles? There you have it. - Rapter09, on 02/09/2008, -3/+27Well, you're at -36 on two posts, so far, and he's at +10, so whatever power he needs, he's certainly getting it.
He's also right. That might have something to do with it. - TuxedosRevenge, on 02/09/2008, -1/+22I could have sworn that they already did back them. This is nothing new.
- Corman420, on 02/09/2008, -1/+20You got that right. ***** all those criminal organizations!
How about investing some time and money to take the crack heads off the streets and make North America a better and safer place to live. Why not pay off peoples debt. Wasted money... Wasted.. RIAA, War on Drugs.. All wasted... - hotsoda, on 02/09/2008, -4/+23So you steal? I'm sorry, but if you don't want to pay $600 for Photoshop, buy Photoshop Elements. It's a program made for professionals who ultimately have the program pay for itself.
Don't want to stomach the $400 MSRP for Vista Ultimate? There are OEM copies you can buy of Home Premium for $100. Still too much for you? Use Linux.
File sharing can be perfectly legal. Copyright infringement is not. - Rapter09, on 02/09/2008, -0/+18Who in their right mind is going to pay $600 for Photoshop? A company. A graphics editor. Somebody doing it professionally, because Photoshop is essentially the must-have for graphics editing.
You don't *have* to spend $600 for Photoshop. Yes, I agree, it's absolutely ridiculous that even a program as powerful as Photoshop should cost that much, but there's many alternatives that are much much cheaper, and one awesome free alternative - The GIMP!
It's like a Ferrari - rich people have Ferrari's. Fast-car enthusiasts have Ferrari's. The average Joe drives a Civic. - Corman420, on 02/09/2008, -9/+26Why do average, every-day consumers need to pay for an operating system, or software titles for personal use? At least lower the damn price. Who in their right mind is goign to pay %600-$1200 for Photoshop to edit thier pictures? Especially students.... The Green Party is stepping in the right direction. Canada has ruled that personal file-sharing is legal, Get rid of the middle man where it's not needed.
- SlvrEagle23, on 02/09/2008, -3/+20I swear, if I ever see a post from you asking "Why are you guys digging me down? Do you disagree with me?" after so many people bury you just because of that silly link in your self-imposed signature, I'm going to smack you upside the head.
- AlienMushroom, on 02/21/2008, -2/+19Politicians love some free movies like we do.
- ShootTheCore, on 02/09/2008, -1/+17And how many seats do you have in the Swedish parliament?
- vibrokatana, on 02/09/2008, -0/+15No, Linux is free except if you want paid support. The GPL liscense has no clauses for commercial use.
- TuxedosRevenge, on 02/09/2008, -1/+13GIMP is like an older model (mid 80's) RX-7: it doesn't look like much but it can suck the side panels off of almost any car on the road in a set of capable and skilled hands.
- adooga, on 02/09/2008, -0/+11Which is a good thing really.
- alpha94, on 02/09/2008, -3/+14There are alternatives to using Photoshop, even many free ones. That's a pretty poor arguement.
- cap11235, on 02/09/2008, -0/+11Have you considered dieting?
- jlnr, on 02/09/2008, -1/+12Perfect example if warez idiot attitude. Photoshop is so expensive because it does a hundred million things that you don't need. By stealing it as a student, you are indeed not harming Adobe; but you prevent a whole industry of cheaper competitors from growing. In fact, you are probably even helping Adobe building its graphics monopoly.
- Corman420, on 02/09/2008, -0/+10Yes, the article states they did. This is just them stating they are STILL backing them up after the latest happenings. Swedish, Canadians, who's next? Step up, free files for average every-day consumers....
- Corman420, on 02/09/2008, -0/+9I speak for manny here - WTF ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?
- adooga, on 02/09/2008, -1/+9??
- Tape99, on 02/09/2008, -0/+8There is extra taxes on mp3 players and Cd's.... so that's why its legal.
- Corman420, on 02/09/2008, -2/+9Or move to Canada where it's legal too... :)
- dondara, on 02/09/2008, -0/+7The chicks alone are worth doing that but individual freedoms are protected there much better than the "land of the free". In the US, corporations have great rights, the citizens ...not so much.
- SlvrEagle23, on 02/09/2008, -2/+8You make it sound like you would expect TPB to deliver the same kind of reliability and "customer service with a smile" that you would expect from your neighborhood drug store owner.
That, and the site on your signature grabs the viewing audience and pulls us back to a time in the mid-to-late-90s. Don't take us back there...we've already heard enough Ace of Bass to last us a lifetime. - inactive, on 02/09/2008, -4/+10The green party is the laughing stock of Sweden. Sorry. 19 seats on 349.
- gl77, on 03/31/2008, -0/+6ummmmmm wrong topic?
- iofthestorm, on 02/09/2008, -0/+6Wrong thread?
- Shogi, on 02/09/2008, -0/+5Dugg for placing blame where it really lies: with the corporations for failing to adapt to the new technology ahead of time.
- inactive, on 02/10/2008, -0/+5I hope you being sarcastic...
- adooga, on 02/09/2008, -0/+5In most cases, consumers aren't making money from their cars, so why do we still have to pay for engines? Surely we should just buy an empty shell on a chassis and get everything else free, including parts for life. And why are we still paying mechanics to fix them? And brake fluid, why do we pay for that?
- inactive, on 02/09/2008, -2/+6Don't have anything else to say, so you gotta try to make a lame insult?
You're wrong, he's right. He wasn't even a dick about it, unlike you. - Corman420, on 02/09/2008, -1/+5You're right! Linux is awesome. But Linux is exactly the kind of license we want - free for personal use, but comes with a charge for business or corporate use (in most cases).
We still need to give the community something in return, and businesses should pay for that.
In most cases consumers aren't making money off of thier personal computers - so why pay for the software? - booshack, on 02/09/2008, -1/+5The burial of this guy gives me hope for the average integrety of diggers.
- Corman420, on 02/09/2008, -0/+4I dont think people are priasing the Green Party. This is just an artle stating there is political back-up. Same thing in Canada... Not sure if you think that all Green Parties mean "Marijuana", because they don't in most cases - that's the "Marijuana Party"... lol
- verkon, on 02/09/2008, -0/+3Yeah, they are always very close to the 4% limit, no wonder why they try to get the attention from younger voters now.
- SeBBBe, on 02/09/2008, -0/+3IMO, Miljöpartiet ("The Green Party") is flat out retarded in many questions, but this goes a very long way to redeem them.. I would consider voting for them. If this becomes a central question in their programme, I will.
- verkon, on 02/09/2008, -2/+5I like how they put it. Filesharing is not the equal to stealing someones car, it is the equal to making an exact copy of it
- carpespasm, on 02/09/2008, -0/+3ahh, now i understand, rich people can't be atheists, military people can't be black, and religious people can't be criminals.
that clears things up. Thank you. - cliffski, on 02/11/2008, -0/+3Linux is freeware, photoshop is not, or are you too dense to understand the concept of the makers of stuff deciding how it is sold?
- inactive, on 02/09/2008, -3/+6"Who in their right mind is goign to pay %600-$1200 for Photoshop to edit thier pictures?"
WTF? You realize that Photoshop is a tool for PROFESSIONALS, right? It's not intended to 'edit pictures' for a home user.
Should we lower the price of Ferraris because they can get people to the grocery store faster than Volkswagens? Your argument is horribly flawed. - adooga, on 02/09/2008, -1/+4And I speak just for myself: Learn to use the replybutton.
- SSUK, on 02/09/2008, -0/+3Oh right yeah, I forgot mention of drugs in a positive manner on the internet = instant cool.
- carpespasm, on 02/09/2008, -0/+3That argument doesn't follow. The engine requires materials, just like the computer's hardware. You're analogy would have to be that you should be charged for the programming on your car's ECU, Radio, and anything else that isn't physical.
- SSUK, on 02/09/2008, -0/+3BA-DUM-TSCH.
- EmperorAwesome, on 02/09/2008, -0/+3As in, the pirate bay vs. international copyright holder pressure will most likely set a precedent for the future legality of filesharing.
- inactive, on 02/09/2008, -1/+4Make North America safer? We gotta clean up Canada and Mexico now?
And I'm assuming you were joking about paying off peoples debt. Only a moron would suggest that. - SlimFastForYou, on 02/09/2008, -1/+4And the most important precedent, which is US lawyers should not try to apply US laws to other sovereign nations. See Pirate Bay C&D letters.
