  Napster and the Workaround - Any more legal?

  by Lostreality in

  1. social
  2. current

  so napster is now charging 14.95/month for membership services, and its basicly, download all you can and want to in that month.

  however, the files are wma files protected by digital rights management.

  meaning, as soon as you stop paying for the napster service, they stop working.

  You can strip it to a WAV file, but it is still no better quality than the WMA file was (in napster's case, 128kbs) then when you convert it down to mp3, some more quality is lost..so it ends up being about 128kbps or less, even if it says its 192 (which my converted ones do)

  yesterday i answered a knock on the door and found 2 well-dressed men who were obviously jws.

  they told me they were in the neighborhood and wanted to share some scriptures with me.

  ok, i've heard that little smoke screen before.

  A workaround has been found however. By converting the protected wma files into non protected mp3 files, the DRM is completely abolished. After trying this method out, it works. And it works well. I tend to agree with people that say it isnt any more legal than plain out p2p-ing music files.
  
  What are your feelings? You pay for the rights to download the music, and that money is distrbuted accordingly, shouldnt you be able to keep the music you download? Or is it the same as booting up kazaa and leaving it going for a few hours?

  If This Isn't A Cult----What Is It????

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the organization teaches that we leave everyone and everything else behind when we join christianity (also known as the "truth").

  your father, mother, brother and sister all have to be given up to become a "real" christian.

  friends that you grew up that are not of the same religion must be abandoned.

  Its a high control group. Ive have heald it in my mind that while it displays acts commonly associated with cults, it also doesnt do some. In my book, thats a high control group.

  WASHINGTON STATE -- CALL TO ACTION!

  by Gretchen956 in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  any and all of you that live in washington state, there are currently two bills in front of the house which directly impact child molestation cases.

  hb 1453 would remove all statute of limitations from rapes or abuse involving minors.

  this is major legislation, since many abused do not remember or are too fearful to come forward for many many years.

  Space Camp. Apparently, in space, since you float slowly, you have to talk slowly to. Oh yeah, and space shuttles "accidently" launch.
