I was guessing to the way it was written. No worries and getting stuff for free. Just an observation. It might not have been the year of birth like I had guessed.

I don't go trolling younger members and I don't know what made you think that. And yes it's your forum. I know.

Remember that Terms and Conditions are only worth anything if they stand up in a court of law. A company can put anything they like in their T&Cs but if they get taken to court they may be forced to remove sections.

Yeah I knew that...See...It's all right..What's I'm doing..for a while... :P

Sounds like someone has all the answers..

Pity most are wrong..

Go read your connections terms and conditions, then try explaining to your parents one day why their internet connection has ceased to exist or why they're getting £800 requests from solicitors

Nothing's happened...yet!!! OMG you actually believe I could get into trouble for just downloading 800 songs????

speedfreak · 08-09-2010, 17:29

I had all the answers at that age, most of mine were wrong aswell

At the end of the day if daddy knows what you are doing then its his problem if something does happen. I know someone on another forum who was hit with a letter demanding payment for a download and he was not at all impressed with his kids but as I said if Daddy knows then thats up to him

You /could/ get into trouble for downloading one song. As for nothing's happened yet - the important thing to remember there is the 'yet' part

You mean stealing 800 songs

and if it's via P2P you're also illegally distributing 800 songs

Downloading isn't uploading man :P I;m not sharing them...I said I'm just downloading them...

Unless you've specifically set your P2P client not to then yes you are.

Loads of people break other laws as well. Doesn't make it OK.

Actually it won't be you they go after, it will be the name on your internet account ... daddy, probably. Whether they go for you or someone else is a bit of a lottery. Just don't think that 'only' downloading 800 songs is any defence, or that it makes you less likely to get done.

Yep, I'm specifically set it not to, lol...So makes it impossible for me to get caught haa...when downloading :P

Just because you want something to be true or to go your way doesn't mean it will do. Maybe you should listen / read some of the advice people are giving you?

You don't seem to understand the recent decision as to the 3 strikes law.. That law meant that ISP would be forced to cut you off. They currently still have that option and always have had it and often do use it..

The virgin media terms and conditions state the following (the bits in red are most relevant to your actions
