You can put the entire Beatles Catalog up for download on your computer at home, but in a court of law thats not going to be a very good defense (I CAN DO IT) when they Apple Music's lawyers find you sitting in your parents basement.
It won't? I'm f**ked then...  Last edited by SpaceDruid on 24-Oct-2007 at 02:44 PM.

Maybe is it a language barrier : 
for Tigger, "can't" would mean "don't have the right to",
an for you "can't" would only mean "not able to".
Feel free to correct me.
Peace and harmony.

It indeed seems to be a language issue.
Maybe Tigger better had it worded your way:
"Even in Europe you don't have the right to..."
Why don't people write what they mean?_________________

The problem with his response in my book is by his very answer he is proving my point.

I wouldn't call it "proving your point", I'd rather say we both basically meant the same, but described it differently.

As I neither am an lawyer nor an US citizen, all I can say to that is that this remains to be seen (in the sense of an old saying: "At court and on sea you are in the hands of god")..._________________
