Iraqi's & Al Qaeda :ph34r:
downloading and uploading illegal files, including pirated mp3's are illegal in Canada
Riaa is the only active muisc protestors in the world but there some laws in cananda that says you cant dowload and upload files but they rarly act on these illegal acts B)
My dad works for CBC, and I asked him if he could do a seach on there news server for anyone charged for downloading/uploading in canada. He found a couple but they were people who were also selling the things they downloaded, one guyhad I think over 400GB of movies, porn, mp3, games, and the only reason they got him for that is he was uploading his own kiddie porn of his kids.
So as long as you dont sell your stuff, or upload your own kiddie porn, you should be fine.
Actualy its probably best to not download kiddie porn at all, thats just wrong.
good advice :rolleyes:Quote:

For all of my fellow Canadian friends, this is the best resource I have found which documents exactly what is legal or not from black letter law to popular interpretations. All comments are supported by links to Part VIII of the Copyright Act and to the Canadian Private Copying Collective. Enjoy

Thanks for this information. I had posted the question elsewhere but this seems to answer it. Just as I said in my welcome message this site is great for our community. Thanks again.
is there any place in the world where it says that's legal to download pirated stuff:unsure:Quote:

There are countries where you can download mp3 albums from sites or listen to full songs from sites, when that is as illegal as you can go in USA ;P
For example in China lots of sharing works on HTTP.
But i don't understand why you started writing on 4 year old thread, as it has no meaning now.
