He actually knew what he was doing could lead to a civil case, i.e. not a criminal case. It's the reason why he would never take any money and actually ended up spending $30,000 of his own money. Quite a few people, never mind their age, wouldn't have know that. It will be interesting to see if the media industry decides to take him to court.

It's not about the 'want it now' generation it's about using technology to it's fullest, let's also not forget new technology usually means things get cheaper. It's also about realising that the human race can now communicate on a level that has changed us in ways we don't even know yet. When a global protest can literally finish of a well known charity or get governments to drop policies then the public finally have something better than the corrupt system that has evolved.

We are all saving for something even the 'want it now' generation have to pay for hardware



Here's a question to everyone.

Is it legal to make back up copies of your DVD/Blu-Ray collection?

If you answer yes why? If you answer no why not?
