So all those other programs that they don't own listed on the torrent along side the program they are downloading for time-shifting purposes is going to be left alone until after they purchase said program. Ok, thats a relieve.

so let see if i get your arguement
1. i am going to create a fake fair use right called "reverse timeshifting"
2. i am going to prove that my fake fair use right is not real (duh)

therefore

legitimate fair use rights like timeshfting are not real either.

the fact that reverse time shifting is not a right does not invalidate the real fair use right of timeshifting.
Ok, I'll rent HBO for a month and download every episode of the Sopranos before I decide to cancel. Gotcha.


That way I offically time-shifted.
