Help me out...quote the constitution where it explains copyright law. And then educate me on what current copyright law is. I'd like to show my attorney where he and the rest of the legal industry have got this all wrong.
Yes a law created On August 18, 1787 has so much relevance today, if you profit from piracy.

Keeping this law actually has the opposite effect of what the Constitution intended. Time to amend it.
As for lifetime protection, why not. It takes that long now to make the money back. Pre Internet I could return 10 times the investment on a scene in a year. Today it might take a life time for someone to make their money back. you just want tons of traffic on free site to sell traffic off of.

And of course it was Paul that came in here with a typical derailment. This is a side issue of the regular discussion that had some interesting comments from all sides. He has been shown this stuff before, I should have just let his post go.
Sorry, is me pointing out things you don't want to discuss mean side tracking the thread?

How many of the sites that you get traffic from are 100% piracy free? List some to see where your coming from.
