Blimey, I can think of hundreds of well known companies that operate semi-legally... you must live like a hermit if you don't deal with them  |
I deal with them.. I don't trust them with my Credit Card however..

I'd be interested to hear when a person was last prosecuted for recording live radio (or TV for that matter).
Home taping has not killed music, and I doubt downloading will. |
Probably no one has. After all, a court case is going to cost the BPI (or whoever) tens of thousands of pounds. They aren't likely to bother for a member of the public who has just copied two albums illegally. Now, if that member of the public has downloaded hundreds of albums illegally, and is actively distributing them over the net, that would be different.
