ok, this is yet another of my stupid ideas
feel free to call me stupid or to flame me or whatever
however, i was thinking (sounds dangerous) about the whole riaa vs 'us' thing going on just now...
i think pretty much everyone on the forum realises that it's copyright infringement to upload copyrighted music (and download for that matter)
however, would it be illegal to upload/download encrypted versions of mp3 tracks
if users were to use an encryption program (something along the lines of pgp), then allow them to be shared, would this constitute breach of copyright?
obviously on the other end, the other user would have a decryption programme to decrypt the track...
ok, now tell me i'm stupid
