    Haha, now the RIAA is really up shit creek without a paddle. If they try to submit evidence of your file-sharing, they admit breaking the eula! ^_^

    These agreements mean nothing, these conditions may even be illegal in themselves.

    Sharmans EULA really won't affect the RIAA being as to how they SUPPOSEDLY used Kazaa-Lite to find out the information on file sharers. At least that is the basis of the lawsuit against the RIAA. Sharman will not defend their EULA when it comes to Kazaa-Lite even though the EULA is the same. This EULA only applies to Kazaa as produced and distributed by Sharman
