People...

You don't get busted for DOWNLOADING.

You get busted for SHARING.

If you download, don't worry about it. And like many have said, you have to be summoned. A simple letter in the mailbox does not bind you to anything.

If you download, don't let this thread deter you. It's just a scare tactic.

[edit]

People think these cases are sealed and done. That's only because the party involved gets scared and admits to fault and settles. Most people don't realize that there is a LOT they HAVE to prove - and if you actually went through the whole process, odds are in YOUR favor, not theirs.

For instance, the IP could be spoofed... or if you have unsecre wireless as I mentioned above. Them winning in this case is as good as me randomly accusing someone of something and suing them for $50k.

Most don't realize that, and that's why people are so scared and quick to give in.
