OT: Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to rob you.

In principle, it's no different from things like Mnet, but it's obvious they're playing on people's ignorance and over-riding desire to exchange files. Odds are you're going to get the short end of the stick. But it's "for business", so therefore it's good. Count me out, though. I run Seti clients, and I'd be happy to consider running distributed processes for pay. I even joined one or two of those projects that never got off the ground and disappeared after the dot.bomb. I would much rather do that and then pay for CD and movie downloads and such out of the proceeds. Note that that last does *not* require a govt. bureaucracy and govt. sanctioned and designed hardware or software, or even centralized distribution and marketing. Which is what really terrifies Hollywood, record labels, broadcasters, the advertising industry, etc. *Not* "piracy". jbdigriz
