    Hi,

    Before adding my first post I want to say that congratulations for this great forum.

    Last week I came across a survey and according to that 80% of Britain, France, Germany and U.S people admit to downloading video illegally from the net. What do you think about this issue? I mean who will win governments or piracy? As you know, torrent site piratebay is a political part in Sweden and already won a seat in European Parliament Elections.

    i'm not surprised at all, i totally agree with piracy.
    'legal' downloading means that you have to pay for everything you download, and that s***s...

    I personally believe there is no way for the government to stop piracy just like how they tried to ban alcohol from the States back in the day. It will bite them harder than before.
