So whats the current take on ripping streams??, is the RIAA going to break down my door??, can online radio stations tell if im ripping?
The reason i ask is that i ripped some streams from a certain online radio station, then i tried to go back again today, and i cant connect to the stream, so i checked their help section, and it says that no stream ripping is allowed, and users that do this will be banned for 48hrs, the website lets you check to see if your ip addess is on the banned list, which mine was.
So how do they know if im ripping a stream, and is a record kept of songs that you have ripped, so that you can be traced back through your ip address??
Lots of questions:confused:
