      Once in a while maybe you will feel the urge
      To break international copyright law
      By downloading MP3’s from file sharing sites
      Like Morpheus or Grokster or LimeWire or KaZaA

        Yes I nearly got stung once circa 2002, I downloaded some pirated movie off of one of those platforms and shortly after received something in the mail specifically telling me what I downloaded and that I was required to respond to them and they were going to litigate. I did not respond. And the problem seemed to disappear. Thankfully I did not end up being one of those people in the news who was taken to court for millions of dollars.
