The war on filesharing is like the war on drugs: fucked. And like everything else here (America) taken to the Nth beyond reason degree.In fairness the majority of fans really are little bitches.

private sites or risk bankruptcy
downloads are full of virus and etc

no they are not, full of viruses,
You see thats what the company’s tell you to not download their products..
