Yeah, it was an actual letter in the mail. I started reading it and was like "oh god, they caught me for all my mp3s"... then I got to the bottom where it listed the offending file info and read "Charmed" and out loud said "Charmed??? CHARMED!??!?!" Of all the things for them to catch me for... a TV show I downloaded, watched, and deleted immediatly.

Oh, me!? Haha. *glad you edited that post*
The program I was using that I got the letter for was bittorrent, from suprnova.org. But normally I use (in order of searching for something) the hub, WinMX, then Kazaa.

Heh, I've downloaded a bunch of whole DVDs... haven't had the chance to burn any of them yet, though, cos my computer's not a whole computer.
