The way I intereperted it, is it is only for file sharing software that u purchase in the store....considering slsk is free and its only supposed to be used for non-studio sets...i woulndt think there would be an issue....

No the article mentions that the software is being distributed for free. I think everyone needs to boycott RIAA/MPAA products for a while. Hit em where it counts and send a message.

I can't believe the way the courts ruled on this. This is the equalivent of suing a gun manufacturer because someone used one of their products to murder someone. :roll:

Re: Latest File Sharing lawsuits

It appears it's only for Morpheus and Grokster...garbage apps for the garbage mainstream.

The RIAA/Courts/etc can keep dragging this out, but all it's going to do is inspire hacker/programmers to create better appz to beat the system.

Re: Latest File Sharing lawsuits

I have never saw SLSK have any mention in these lawsuits. I guess since they aren't known for sharing the pop bullshit from mtv they are immune to the suits...at least so far.

They aren't mentioned by name, but the holding is broad enough to cover that technology as well. If it ever develops a large following, expect it to be a target.

Re: Latest File Sharing lawsuits

As i said.. its all about money.... and eventually... slsk will be target (sorry for being so negative) but its the whole truth
