What does german law says about illegal torrents?
-
i am planning to move to germany, and somebody told me, german law is very strict about illegal file sharing, means copyright data…
if you upload or download illegal file , you may go into prison or deport to your country back....
any guide about german law, what does it says?

Thanks mgr,
normally how i download data is uTorrent, and rapidshare.comis there any way to protect myself that no knows what i am downloading?
and i wonder, iTunes is delivering digital copies of songs, ofcourse its a copyright material, then how one cann't make copy for personal use?

ahaaa..
i have heard about peer guardian… don't know if it really works to protect your privacy.Yes, iTunes use DRM, and file extension turns into .M4P and its called protected AAC file, although
there are GPL licening software out which removes iTunes's DRM.
QTfairUse....
yeah, for what i have understood by your german sentence, is this is person view , and it can be wrong or right... and i have not used any translater for this ;D
Ich wieß nicht über dies das richtig oder falsch..

Hey Have fun in Deutschland! (I lived there for a little bit) About your question on iTunes. They encorperate the DRM into the music and then when you buy it they send you a copy of the file and then they a certian portion of th 99 cents the the record company. The DRM prohibits you from storeing/playing/syncing to iPod on more than 5 computers registered in your name. It also stops you from burning it on CD's more than 5 times (They like the number 5 ;} ) Other than that, you can listen to the song all you want and put it on as many iPod's as you own. After all that i sugest buying iTunes Plus Songs (Srry 4 of topic) They have NO DRM.
