Even though I will give you the benefit of the doubt, I have forwarded this thread to the FBI, and they may be scanning your computer for illegal material. I'd suggest deleting any such content ASAP.

Haha, I'm pretty sure that I own most of the 6.2 GB of music on my comp (subtracting the 326 MB from my iTunes songs). Although I think some of it might be burnt from my sister's CDs, and there might be five or six files from Kazaa that I never listen to. Probably Beethoven or some other artists that are in public domain. I don't know if Louis Armstrong is in public domain yet. Well, fifty years now (I keep on thinking a hundred), he should be. So I should be allowed to download some good 20s Jazz music onto my comp and it shouldn't be illegal. Mostly when I use Kazaa, it's to find missing .dlls. I also used it to get PowerDVD because my computer came with the wrong Master CD of software, so I couldn't play DVDs otherwise (although I still registered it with the serial stickered to the front of my computer).
Anyway, really, it is unhealthy to be so adherent to copyright issues unless they concern you, especially if there is no reason to be suspicious. 100% of the music that I own is on my computer. Somebody saying that they have a song on their computer is by no means suspicious. Why would you be such an advocate?
