how can they shut down kazza? its peer to peer it dosnt have a centeral server to shut down.

its not they can flip a switch and its over.

i beleive it is your isp (ispn?) that will not allow you to use kazaa. verizon or some company like that is being sued by record companies because people who use verizon might be using kazaa. also kazaa does in theory slow down internet by a lot by people constantly donwloading many files.

so download everything you need or might need in the future before it shuts down!(legal stuff of course ;) )

Your ISP can not block KaZaA access to the internet. . . just specific ports. And KaZaA doesn't slow down the internet, traffic does. Any download slows it down. Uploads to for that matter.

Verizon is at court because they do not want to reveal the name of the consumer to their service who hosts over ~800 songs. They are ordered to reveal it, and this will shake the foundations of privacy.

nooo, now everyone will know i got neil young songs. but yes that is true about privacy, but for only 800 songs??? and only songs??? i can see if the songs are not actually released yet or are metallica songs ::) . but last time i checked i remember people having over 1000 songs.(maybe all legal though)

1. KaZaA installs software that spys on your comp. ::)

2. The only games I have downloaded are Dune II and WarCraft I. Real oldies that you can't buy anymore.

Well this is one person they know of. There are probably more to come...
