new to this forum and this site. i was quite excited when i discovered
several days ago that the final episodes of sg-1 and the last s3 eps of sga
had already been aired in canada and the uk. i did a search through mininova
and found sga eps 17-20 on this site and downloaded the torrents and the
avi\'s
and was quite impressed with the speed of the downloads and their quality.
imagine my surprise this afternoon when i received a letter from charter
stating they had received notification from mgm that they were notified by an
xml tag (created by baytsp) put on the specific files i downloaded that my ip
address had downloaded these episodes in violation of the digital millennium
copyright act (dmca) and that, if they \"caught\" me again, they would pull my
service! the files accessed had \"mint,\" \"nbs,\" and \"nfe\" in their file
names.
needless to say, this scared th crap out of me. i always thought that
downloading tv shows that i regularly watch was ok. i also thought the
bittorrent sites were fairly impenentrable (sic), but now geez, how do you
know what\'s marked and what isn\'t.
