Watching Phantom on the 'puter'
According to Slashdot, the MPAA has released some software that can help you and me identify whether we have illegally obtained copyright files and peer 2 peer applications on our computers and offers to delete them.
Here's the catch. It identifies every media file, including the sounds good ole Bill Gates gave us with Windows, which were legally obtained. So if a parent has no clue what they're doing, and they think they're doing a good thing by blindly obeying the MPAA, then they should download the new software and click 'yes' when asked. Sorry, but I doubt the MPAA will replace the deleted .wav sound files since they are copyrighted even though you did have them legally. You deleted them accidentily, and they don't care.
Support fair use. Don't support the MPAA or the RIAA.
