I'll keep it short and say that I *heart* Rude...as a surfer and an industry insider.
We are sooo much more than a file sharing site.
(in fact, that is a small part of what we do!)

We are an online social community that even I've quickly become
addicted to...and certainly not because I'm looking for pirated content.
It's fun, interactive and evolutionary for our industry in alot of ways.
Do some users upload content they don't have rights to? Yes.
Do we immediately remove that content the minute we are made aware of it?Yes.

But the bottom line is, I'm not here to argue. I'm a nice girl, even if
I'm "rude". I know nothing about your biz, who you are, or what you do.
Take the time to get to know me and let's chat in a forum not filled
with bravado. You might be surprised what you find.
if your a "industry insider" then you have no excuse for not knowing the pain giving away content causes. The bigger question would be are you alright with the industry getting screwed because your getting a check?
