Better to say that a lot on BT is legal - just orders of magnitude more
is illegal.

it can, but that's rare. the vast majority of bittorrenting is for
pirated content.


Thank you. That's what you wouldn't admit the first time around.

no = statement preceding is false.

bittorrent is not a way of having someone else pirate it.

in any event, how in the world did you twist that to mean that i
wouldn't admit that there can be a legal use for bittorrent?

I didn't. But even if I had I could reply that I got it from the same
place that you got the idea that using bit torrent to obtain a pirated
video is not merely another way of having someone else pirate it for
them.

You deny reality. Those who purchase a **** quality repro are not

No, but that torrent is like the internet as a whole and can be used for
good or bad.

Another survey. Where is your proof?


already answered, not that it matters since it's well known in the
industry.


Statements like that is just like saying that the world is flat is a
well known fact and that it's stupid to dispute it!

it's like asking for proof that an f/1.2 lens has shallower depth of
field than an f/4 lens. sure, someone could give you a mathematical
proof, but why bother when anyone who has been around cameras will tell
you the same thing.

And, what's your point.

BTW In all cases, are the the sellers of pirated apps the same guys
who
made the duplications, or do they buy them from the duplicators.


those who buy pirated stuff are stupid because they could just
pirate
it themselves for free.


And you are stupid if you pay for an oil change, it's easy to do
yourself.


Except dealing with the drained oil. That then has to be transported
to a garage willing to take it (Canadian Tire here is willing since
it's likely you bought the oil from them).


Is there any regulation in Canada that states that any business that
sells oil must accept used oil for reclaimation? If so, there must be a
lot of places that used oil can be taken to.

I change my wheels from summer/winter which can be done in 30 minutes.
Unless my buddy helps, that stretches it out to nearly an hour.
