OK lets say that you make a VHS recording of a TV show that you are going to let a couple of friends borrow (which is illegal of course)

Then a stranger walks into your house and grabs the VHS tape from you and tells you that you cannot stop him or even complain as the show you recorded doesn't belong to you. However if your friends want to see the show then they can come over to his house and watch it instead....although they might have to wait outside for a few hours before they can see it... or of course pay a fee and watch it right away.

Kinda makes you wish that you didn't record the show in the first place...not only did you loose your VHS (or bandwidth) but the person that takes it from you then turns around and starts telling you who you should and shouldnt be showing videos to in the future.

But sadly ppl always think the net is not like real life because on the net EVERYTHING should be free, nobody can pretend to keep something "private" on it... the whole concept of "friendship" is also a bit complicated to explain to the average p2p user :roll:

Another problem is that when JW vids get too much publicity then authorities will see JW logo on the corner of the videos... not too hard to put 2 and 2 together... Sharing JW vids may cause some seious trouble to JW and to Jabba, and when this happens noone will never get to see any more new videos.. and I do believe that this is the last thing that we want to happen, isn't it??
