And Dingo...I don't know about the RIAA, but the MPAA just slaps your wrist. I've been nailed twice for downloading/sharing movies (on bittorrent dl'ing and sharing are the same thing) and all I really got was a "delete it within 24 hours and don't do it again". Yeah right. Maybe if new movies didn't cost $20+ for bloated advertising and fancy packaging I'd actually buy them. Sometimes greed bites you in the ass.

How can people not know about the RIAA?! Hell even south park did a pardoy on them.

MPAA To Sue, Too: The MPAA (that's the movie association) is going to start suing people, too. They'll apparently start with about two hundred

MPAA has been in the business of issuing warning emails for quite some time (a few of you have told me about receiving them), but now they're going to up the ante, following the same formula as the RIAA.

Speaking of RIAA, they've been methodically suing a few hundred at a time, with the cumulative total well in excess of 5,000.

The RIAA is settling for about 3k per law suit. They give you an option to settle or go to court. If you go to court, you will get your ass handed to you and probly pay more.

The RIAA was running rampart about suing people because a judge ruled that they have the right to subpoena the ISP to see who is supplying the mp3s.
That has since been appealed and is caught up in court right now. They are still able to retrieve the names but it's a tad harder now.

If i were you i would stop sharing all together.
