"Cracking" down on warez

As Dave Cook mentioned, PWA got busted. But why not all the other big warez sites and groups. I mean, their so patheticly easy to find. There's many lists with like "The top 10 Warez sites" and stuff like that, many sites with pirated software, and many cracking groups. I dont even think PWA was that big. I would have though tthey would have cought all those cracking groups we hear of like Myth and Class. (the only ones I know of). Im glad the government is stepping in on this because if they dont really dont bust those warez sites, software programming could become unprofitable once everyone starts getting ADSL and Cable modems. (Im getting my ADSL modem the 26th, Yipee!) Just a controversial thought. BTW, Im not an anti-piracy ass hole. I'll admit to downloading Super 1 Karting. But I will buy it, when I can find it. Thanks, Alex

If you have Hell Atlantic, get to know these two sites very, very well. You will need them! http://www.dslreports.com http://63.162.136.120/bell/ I was with BA for 28 days... down for 18 of them. There is now a class action suit taking place that you can read about on that second site. -- Scott B.

That makes me (in Worcestershire) even more depressed. We haven't even got cable yet where I live, and aren't likely to. -- David.

Where in the U.S. can I find a $25 DSL or cable modem service in NYC?

For people living in Sheffield, Yorkshire Cable will launch their cable modem service in November. It'll be �50 per month compared with ADSL's �40 for bascially the same service. Still, it doesn't compare with $25 (US, equivalent to about �15) for a similar service in the US.

I have cable modem service for what has to be close to $25-30 US, but of course I'm in Canada AY!! +) Md TRUSRS85 wrote:

As of the 26th we will start paying $50 a month for 604kb a second for Bell Atlantic ADSL. It was either that or Telocity :) Thanks, Alex Scott B. Husted <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:ShGR4.39081$[email hidden]...

Actually, the $25 service I had seen advertised only had 64K download and upload, kind of an economy cable modem service. I think the prices for the proper 512K service are more like $40-50. Sorry about that. :)

Most of them are international, loosley knit groups of people. You can areest a few individuals here and there, but it's impossible to shut down a group. >I would have though tthey would have cought all those cracking >groups we hear of like Myth and Class. (the only ones I know of). The DID, in the big sting last year. It didn't even slow them down. Joe McGinn _____________________ Radical Entertainment

Does that include the ISP Fee's? Man, I would LOVE to pay that! I have RR Cable in Fairfax, VA, and it's "ok". We are throttled to 1.5mb/sec max download, and 192k upload. That would be fine if you could actually _get_ it most of the time. Don't get me wrong. It beats the hell out of ISDN and modem, and I would never go back to either, but I pay $55 per month for this and for 1.5mb/384k _dedicated_ bandwidth I would pay the extra $25! I'm also annoyed at the $10 per month 'punishment fee' because I only have basic TV cable! On Mon, 08 May 2000 21:26:10 GMT, "Scott B.
