Need help on speech topic

[U12Bluebird]

I'm doing a speech in my English class about the pros of file sharing, but I can only think of a few things.

Can anyone help me with some ideas on what else to put on file sharing other than the right to freely distribute data? lol

Thanks in advance!

don't forget to use the quote that the canadian judge used to justify free file sharing

if information is shared - it becomes public. you have a right to access public information.

as long as you getting copyrighted files from your friend for anything without paying for it, its illegal. not that I, or millions other really care about this one. haha

what do they say about broadcasting music on the radio. is that sharing the information too?

they always have disclaimers about copyrights on tv but i never hear that on the radio.

^^ well i rip off DI and some russian stations and of course, the ever awsome, Chronix aggression, all day long. so i dunno

What was that quote?

"I cannot see a real difference between a library that places a photocopy machine in a room full of copyrighted material and a computer user that places a personal copy on a shared directory linked to a P2P service,"

god bless canada judges
