Strange coming from the Bush administration, considering that Dubya recently admitted listening to the Beatles on his iPod, and that he must have ripped it from a CD since the Beatles aren't available on iTunes. And during the recent trial, one of the label chiefs said that ripping music is a kindler/gentler way of saying stealing!

In any case, consumers will now stay away from apps like Kazaa and eMule, in favor of private p2p software which is legal, such as GigaTribe: www.gigatribe.com

I hear that. It isn't soon enough. I can't believe we're almost half way into October and I still have the a/c on with this 90 degree heat. That's another topic.

The next big case will be about some guy addicted to file-sharing and couldn't stop. You watch this defense will be soon.

Cases such as this remind us strong enforcement is a significant part of the effort to eliminate piracy, and that we have an effective legal system in the U.S. that enables rights holders to protect their intellectual property,

---

Cases such as this? When was the last time before this the RIAA, MPAA, or anyone like them actually won a case in court rather than scaring people into settling?

And finally as a general statement, would all the Bush haters shut up? If you really wanted him out of office that bad, you should have started a petition or something to the government for a movement to have him impeached. Oh, but wait, now you have get someone else into office to replace him. I wonder how much worse they would be... They would probably be the extreme opposite which means that people would keep attacking the U.S. and the new president would just say "violence isn't the answer. We shouldn't go to war with them."

Were you alive when Clinton was in office? That lying SOB did more to thwart P2P sharers than any other president. And Kerry would have been TEN times worse than Bush.

Trying doing a little research.

The childerns health care bill was a bit to middle class friendly,plus it also tried to cover adults living with parents...of coarse the fools cant see that if you are disabled and living with your rents you might..gee I dunno need it...try not being on anythign and you need 600 for teeth.

aabbccdd
people still need help and the middle class need all the help they can get to keep putting all the money into goverment.

I wont comment on this article to much because the title says it all and to the comment talking about the Bush haters, honestly i dont think a petition would have done a thing and furthermore what politician really gives two shiznits about anything other then money, publicity, and maintaining their current status.

Amen on that 08 couldn't come so fast thanks GOD 1 more year with this clown Bush.

Are you people truly that ignorant to think a petition won't do anything? If you actually construct it well, get enough publicity for it, and submit it to the proper government officials, it could actually accomplish getting an impeachment. Instead of even trying anything intelligent, and intelligent being the key word, people just complain and complain.

Thanks i won't put up with the Bush bashing. I wonder how the people here bashing him would like it if me or someone else was to bash there parents/family etc. bet it wouldn't fly so lets not bash the president of the great United States Of America i mean if its that bad move to Iraq

goverment isn't going to fix you're problems people so make the right choices and get off you're ass and do it yourself!!

---

I might not use that exact terminology but basically ya. If everyone who really complains that much would just do something about it, they could have had him out of office. Then again, after he would have been impeached, who would fill in? And more importantly, what would they be like? I think people just don't realize that, with politics, you just try to get the lesser of the evils. You aren't going to get someone perfect in office.

Bush said in an interview that his iPod had the Beatles on it (before they were legally available).

No chance of any 'enforcement' there tho, eh?

Same old same old; one rule for the wealthy & powerful, 'examples' and ruined lives for the rest of us if 'they' decide to so.

bang on the money!

We will see what happens in 08. I just don't see anything changing from the status quo unless someone Independent or maybe like a Ron Paul is elected. Since there is vote tampering and other under-handedness I don't see it. Donkey is to elephant as poo is to sh*t. There needs to be a change in lobbying and campaign finance. Props to Bush for appointing a corporate stooge from the very industry it is protecting, government of the people my ass.

Pretty much both parites have become neo nazis both sides of the coin'o'exstream there is no middle there is no balance either its the corporate nazis who try and use the bible to "placate" the people or the nanny nazis who hate fairness and would rather give everythign to whoever is presumed to be "the lesser"...all of that added on the attention span of a sound bite we only vote for teh pretty famous people populace....we in the US are screwed.....

Hell in the Christian sense dose not exist,I do believe in good and evil and "hell" merely begin a place where evil lingers, not a place for punishment...that place is called earth ^^

Just another Bushism. Worry about pirates and killing rag heads instead of worrying about the US.

Just another perfect example of misappropriation of funds...

I reckon if we show the bush admin the advantages about p2p he would like it as long as it grows money for the economy. I feel maybe they can see if they can catch the bad guys through p2p. :P

it matters not because the bankers pull the strings and own the media corporations and tell the government what laws they want.
