MediaSentry routinely breaks the law, but they're not brought into court?

Seems slightly unfair to me.

Wow, just be *accused* of illegal file sharing (whether you did it or not) and you'll have your internet disconnected:

Guilty before innocent? Seriously? Bull$hit.

Apple should pay for that 30 second clip that it uses to sell the song:

http://yro.slashdot.org/story/09/09/17/ ... art_pos=19


Cuz, ya know, people looking at a book before they buy it is an antiquated model that will never work and any store, like Chapters, that tries it will go out of business in, like, hours. No, minutes.
