Still works just fine ATM. I used it last night and downloaded a
proggie or two. It had no problem finding them... fairly obscure
programs too. In fact, if you want to download current music that
isn't corrupt, it's the only way to go. The IP blocker in KLite will
keep the RIAA servers from feeding you garbage. Normally I download
almost no music, but I tried to download about 15 songs a couple of
weeks ago with the regular version of Kazaa and all but ONE were
corrupt. I tried downloading a few of those song 8 freakin times...
ALL were corrupt. I downloaded and installed klite then ran the IP
blocker update and tried the list again. This time only one was
corrupt and I got a clean copy on the second try.
See, something doesn't make sense here. If the supernode structure
that will support Klite is phasing out and klite won't work anymore
then it's no threat to Sharmin... why would he go to the trouble of
contacting every single ISP he could find where a site hosting a copy
of klite resided and have all the sites pulled?
Now, I'm thinking that IF the Kazaa supernode structure gets to the
point that it won't support klite, will it matter? Klite appears to
have a supernode structure built into it. If enough people are using
klite, it'll get along fine on it's own. Screw Sharmin's hypocrisy.

A federal appeals court has upheld a controversial court decision that said file-sharing software programs such as Grokster or Morpheus are legal ;-)

Following the lead of a lower-court decision last year, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Los Angeles said on Thursday that peer-to-peer software developers were not liable for any copyright infringement committed by people using their products, as long as they had no direct ability to stop the acts.

The RIAA is sueing file sharing end users. They have won quite a few judgements already. Typically the fines are about $3,500 but some have run as high as $10,000. The courts have not made stealing legal.

Nobody is really expecting the media giants to watch us take the produce of their hard labour without paying for it. Where would we be if they couldn't make a serious profit marketing the media trends they want us to follow. In their current form they are dead in the water, this is just the ungainly floundering of a person about to drown, good riddance as well. Someone play them some Boy Zone or Spice Girls for them to go out on.

Then what do you think of this little snippet ... great philosophy, it's from the The Free Music Philosophy

'Music is a creative process. Today, when a musician publishes music, i.e. exposes it to the outside world, only a privileged set of individuals are able to use the music as they please. However, the artist has drawn from the creativity of many other musicians and there is an existential responsibility placed upon them to give this back unconditionally, so creativity is fostered among people. '

Sound good G-P ??
