so far hes only ripped the songs off of cds he already owns, and bearshare is stealing duhhh
“stealing” is such a bad way of putting it.
Sometimes it helps to be ‘assertive’ though. I bought an iPod soundpak for my hubby for xmas (which is a thing consisting of a hard case in which to put his ipod, speakers for ‘external’ listening and a battery pack for recharging said ipod). It said on the blurb that it would be supplied with an AC adapter (not much point in having a rechargable battery without something to charge it with). When it arrived (a month after xmas) it came with a firewire cable.
It was not immediately aparant to me how we were to charge it so I emailed them. They replied that the firewire connection was to charge it from the pc (which aparantly most computers have - though neither of our laptops do) or we could buy an adapter for £19.99. I replied that since the website had advertised an AC adapter and we didn’t have a firewire thingy, I would expect them to send me one - free. They did! (and said they had updated thier website accordingly)
So perfectly politely I got my free adapter. Silly selling it without one though.
