    At what point did distributing content as torrents become "time shifting" them?

    I'm not trying to get involved in the drama about right and wrong but what does downloading movies or anything else have to do with time shifting?

    Maybe someone can give me the definition as it is being used for this topic?

      It has nothing to do with time shifting.

      There has to be a broadcast that is recorded and that recording is a time shift.
      To then upload that recording is not time shifting since it's already time shifted
      and there is no broadcast.

      There will just be more idiots like this :

          secondly timeshifting in a cloud is a fact of law
          a swarm is a cloud

          so to answer your question

          btw is for downloading not distributing
          seeding is backup and that is a logical arguement not a legal one.
          All though i expect it will be tested with the next 2 years. (made legal)

              Please stop replying to my post concerning copyright because you are just trying
              to spin the law and it will never work in court.

              Your advice will have people going to jail but you will not bail a single person out.

              You're doing nothing except spreading ignorance about the law.

                You need a Flux Capacitor to time shift. Idiots.

                    taking content that you paid for/were authorized to view on x day at x time and moving that viewing time to y day at y time.
