Man, I darn near fell off the chair laffing this morning when I read that MP2P is being sued by the BIG FOUR for "UNFAIR COMPETITION?!" Now that's a first and it shows just how desparate these goofs are getting. The EU Courts told them to get lost, the spanish courts did the same so now they're going after the "FOUNDER OF P2P". When are these boneheads gonna realize that the only people they're hurting is themselves. Their refusal to embrace change is the problem not the file sharing, that's just an convenient excuse to try and stifle sharing. Look at the stunt the RIAA is trying to pull by trying to have ALL file sharing of any type declared illegal. If this one goes thru, you won't be able to send court documents via fax or email, job postings or resumes or even files and proposals that are being examined for business matters and why because those morons claim that it is not right. Well, to me what is not right is them and their campign to try and stop progress. So to Cary Sharman of the RIAA, THE MPAA and others to you I say, "WAKE UP AND SMELL THE COFFEE, YOUR DAY IS OVER!! IT'S TIME TO FISH OR CUT BAIT."

hi, i've never heard of this MP2P before, so i went and did a little google, and found this manolito software, is it really worth trying?

doesn't that just mean "another, better choice for artists and consumers"?

see now, why is this not on the mainstream news? the RIAA (ifpi,bpi, yada) wants to sue and probably ban p2p so they can try to reclaim the distribution platform and control ALL media, again. sorry, Sony, EMI, Warner & Universal we are not blind by your anti consumer, anti society tactics any more and ppl have a choice and the choice is to bypass you i'm afraid, you no longer hold the monopoly on distribution!

doesn't anyone else have alarm bells ringing?

the answer is simple, boycott all the companies trying to lock ppl out:

Boycott; Sony
Boycott, Warner
Boycott, EMI
Boycott, Universal

I don't understand how they can be so stupid.

They got the finger twice already, an how can a file transfer protocol be illegal? It isn't the protocol itself that is doing anything wrong, it is the uses certain people put it to that may be (unless you live in Italy where sharing a reduced quality song is NOT illegal)

I'm waiting to see them running with their tail between their legs yet again, and I hope whatever judge awards against them and charges them with pointless and malicious litigation. That would be so funny.. until that day when these fat greedy lazy companies are finally destroyed..

Next thing we will find is that they are trying to sue the founders
of the internet. This is the VCR all over again. These organizations are incapable of actually doing anything productive. All they know how to do is sue. They need to have a "stupidity law" that punishes such people. There should also be a "leech" law to stop all these organizations from leeching off of others. Leeches usually live in a swamp and wait around for blood to suck on. This is an exact comparison to there organizations. MPAA, RIAA and the likes should try and do something productive for a change rather than sucking the life out of technological advancement.

It's almost laughable.

Or stupid.
