dont know what u think, but the french are talking about to install a fee of 8 euro/month and you can then download whatver u want from any p2p websites.

can u believe that??? all u want?with no limitation...for only 8 euro.

It's just a proposition which will be discussed again and again in March...but personally I don't think it's a good idea.

The term "downloading from P2P websites" is not correct, because the servers don't host any contents themselves, as the name says it is peer-to-peer. But is there a link for the above news? I am curious to see how they are going to police this.

sorry, i can not give u any link. i watched the french news on tv last night on my sat dish.

this can simply not work, a movie downloaded legally under a licence will go to ur friends, and friends of friends, ...

all shops will have to close as it would be easier to ask someone who has the license to make u a copy .

but watch very carefuly what is happening in france, laws are strange there...
like the 35h work week....
