JP you steal music (possibly more) and share it with others depriving artists their due of money and enabling others to do the same.
Check yoself.

I also tape things from TV onto a DVD recorder (you use TIVO).
I don't think it's the same as stealing a microwave and giving it to my Mother.
Being honest, do you.

there is kind of a difference between a kid on minimum wage and a millionairre who wouldn't even notice their loss if it wasn't pointed out

No, I don't think they are sins.
I have copied albums to cassette for years. I have taped from the radio for years. I have taped movies to video for years. I think file sharing is the same. I have never considered it a sin.
I think stealing a microwave is different. I suspect you do as well. Hence the deflection.

So you steal music and and give it away. That makes it better.
How did I steal a microwave that was linked to my receipt?
Actually, according to the sales rep, the first microwave was not mine. The second was brought to and put in car by soemone else.

Re: black friday is near, here is some ad's
Damn I overlooked one of the simplest time savers....
If you know what's on sale, buy it now and return it on Black Friday.
The customer service line will be shorter and you are guaranteed your items.

Re: black friday is near, here is some ad's
Busy will probably get caught for stealing that microwave.
I mean, if someone walked into Comet wearing an Even Steven with a Temp Taper Fade at the back and nicked a microwave, he is likely to stick out in the staffs' minds.
It's only a matter of times before the authorities get him - and I don't mean the fashion police :dabs:

That's my kind of showdown.
And on such hospitable and neutral turf.
Usually it's inside the bank or out in the street, away from the popcorn and refreshments.
I think we owe them both a hearty thanks for thinking of us.

No, apparently me sharing files sort of negates him stealing electrical goods, for his Mother. I'm not sure how that works.
Do you think he told her "Mater, here's a new microwave I stole for you", or perhaps added a lie to the stealing by telling his dear old mum that he had purchased said item for her.
BTW, in Scotland his mam would now be guilty of receiving stolen goods. I don't know what the situation would be in the USA.

No thanks required, I think of it as my civic duty. After all, he's just a small chap with dodgy knees. He couldn't possibly entertain a glimmer of a hint of a thought of physical confrontation.
We ascertained this some time ago and it's for the benefit of all concerned that Busy throws his toys out of the pram still metaphorically, but only on the interweb.

Wouldn't it be terrible if his dear Mam was under the impression that she hadn't broken the law.
But as you point out, it's really no problem since you share Bon Jovi albums on the interweb :blink:

Funny I have a receipt for it.
That receipt links up nicely with the microwave too. I can bring it in for servicing and all dat.
Apparently you pirating music makes you a thief.

Huzzah.
BTW IRL my money would be on the Welsh lad. The 6', 15 Stone footballer against the 5'9" 200lb ex Gheyball player, with bad knees. No contest imo.
This assumes it is a fair, hand to hand, no weapon event. Mano a Mano as it were.
What say you, could you put forward a case for your boy.

So thieving is okay providing you get away with it?
Busy logic is great. No, really.

You have a receipt for both, how did you manage that one. Paid for one, fraudulently claimed a second = stealing. In a similar situation a non-thief would have simply said, no I already have the one I paid for. You chose not to.
Actually file sharing for non-commercial purposes is not stealing. If it were it would be a criminal matter, which it is not where I come from. Pirating, for profit is an entirely different thing and is a criminal matter, but I don't do that.
Whats the smillie for a double pwned btw.

Re: black friday is near, here is some ad's
While I'm not at all allergic to cat-fur, I shall now don my air-mask so as not to overdo my exposure.
Too much of a funny thing, don't you know.
BTW-
JP-nothing at all against manker, but I think his reflection in that chrome waste-bin he bought for the Missus makes him appear more formidible than he actually is.
Remember also that Busyman is a mesomorph, with all that it entails.
I'm primed for entertainment, gentlemen; while we've been deprived (for the nonce) of Lacy/Calzaghe, I deem this an acceptable substitute.

Re: black friday is near, here is some ad's
So your contention is that manker is a bit of a nancy, due to the chrome bin debacle and the babycham drinking. Busy, while of dwarf-like proportions is heavily muscled and in a word, dense.
A classic Frazier v Ali. It might be closer than I originally thought.

I don't have a receipt for the first one.
So stealing a file and giving it away is ok? I understand now.
