Aol's Own File Sharing System

[RealitY]

Interseting Reading...

Though I don't trust or like the Au-Thor-Ah-Tah of AOL...
Had it for years and suffered cleaning my system of it more than once.

Though again very interesting...
Do you trust a company that is that closely related to the AA issue at hand...
Simply based on the desperate need they are currently in forcustomers and money...
I think you are correct here since it is clear no one is going to profit much from these lawsuits, they could profit much more from allowing it, since its not going away, and getting that $9.95 per month.
Smart business decision actually.

With AOL, they can skip straight to suing your sorry ass, cause they already have your info on file.

How did they get the info on file?

Yes this very true, though as I stated...

Hay, I quoted myself


What would you do if you were the VP in charge...
I know the answer already...
Get the money until this mess all lands somewhere

As soon as it gets out that an RIAA member is allowing people to get away with file-sharing (or even encouraging it) it&#39;ll be dead. Trust me, if AOL finds out that you&#39;re filesharing they&#39;ll go after you.

I thought aol allowing this to go on was weird myself.

But really they have to know. They are getting millions of downloads FROM THEIR SERVERS.

People having thousands of emails in their account.

They have to know.

I don&#39;t know about the RIAA thing, maybe they will sue an aol memeber. Maybe not. Who knows.

I&#39;m talking about the AOL file sharing system.
