Leythos said:Show me one link that indicates a case that shows the your
interpretation of the EULA allows anyone to do as they wish for
private use - I've not seen one case that directly addresses it. And
don't repost your same old drivel, it doesn't make your case any more
than your interpretation of what you are posting.

condition of life, sometimes referred to as Buddhahood. Are you
Buddhist?

kurttrail said:I don't have to all I have to do is have my interpretation of "fair
use," and as long as the copyright owner doesn't contest it in court
and win, then I have every right to follow my interpretation. MS hasn't
contested it in over the dozen or more years that it introduce its one
computer term into the Windows EULA, despite knowing that people have
disregarded it, because of their "fair use" rights.
In the Betamax case, the Supreme Court defined what "fair use" means
when it comes to individuals.
"Any individual may reproduce a copyrighted work for a "fair use"; the
copyright owner does not possess the exclusive right to such a use." -

Drivel snipped
Don't bother. Any rational human being knows how the laws work, and
know that it isn't up to the individual to prove anything unless the
copyright owner/licensor disputes it and wins in a REAL COURT OF LAW!
And any rational human being still reading this thread already knows
that you are just a blathering idiot, and not a man with any sense of
integrity!

Gross misinterpretation and not linked to the subject of your
advocating theft. This case is regarding to copying of a TV movie or
event for showing later or as they called it - "time shifting." It
doesn't touch on the theft of services you advocate in any way.
More drivel,
but the closest you come to an argument. As any thief
knows - you aren't legally guilty until taken to court and convicted.
Any rational human being knows this, but you seem to feel this makes
you just or moral.
It just makes you a loud mouthed thief who sits
and taunts the world to come and get them.
You are such an
egomaniacal adolescent that in all likelihood - you only have this
software installed on one machine and lust for the opportunity to
draw MS into a PR nightmare.
You're a typical internet dummy who
sits in anonymity thinking they can abuse the world with "their"
selfish beliefs that satisfy nothing but their desires.
Your only
claim to winning
is the ability you have to sit and beat the group up
with post after post of mindless drivel and abuse and carries less
weight than the text it contains.

Isn't name calling thought of as trolling in the groups?
Leythos said:Only when it's used as a means to stir up sh|t about someone that's not
really a troll - and Kurt fits the Troll definition in many posts, and
most of the post related to the EULA and Licensing.
Leythos said:Ron, he won't listen, he's got a very narrow ability to absorb
information, he only reads and understands what fits HIS position. He's a
lost cause and doesn't do anyone any good with those posts of his.
Note, that you and more than likely Ron (self) Bogart, do not consider what
the side of the EULA kurt explains here. You make no valid retort regarding
his basis of how the EULA is wrong to him, then call him a thief, and pirate
promoting activities that are regarded as such. Yet, you have not once
invalidated his arguments regarding "fair use" while having no problem,
namecalling in the guise of snipping and replying to "out of" context quotes
that are nothing but impertinent.

What was that about "not" listening?
Leythos said:I hate to tell you this, but Kurt's only presented Opinions, and has
not presented anything that invalidates anything I've read on the
EULA or even additional comments from MS about licensing. You can
follow his "Opinions" because they lend themselves to what you want,
but I don't see any validity in his personal interpretation of the
licensing agreement.
I don't snip out of context, I snip as needed to reply to a point.
As for name calling, trolls are often called Trolls. While some of
what he posts is not true trolling, it's most always setting up for
the trolling part that comes later in his posts. He (and you) have
OPINIONS that are nothing more than opinions - get use to it. There
is no case to support your positions, only opinions that something
might or might not support either site. Until you can show me a case
concerning MS I don't and won't see that drivel as more than just
Opinion.
I have no problem with Kurt having an Opinion, but it's just an
opinion.
I would be ashamed to show my face, if I conducted myself in your
manner, and all I had to say in reply to someone was some gutless
variation of "no, it isn't."
[another big snip]
Another group of EULA-groupies are those like Leythos, tied into MS
through their businesses. Leythos is a MS Partner.
Yet you can't show that what I state is a fact, is only an opinion!
