Too Good To Be True?

I saw this 3 DVD Pink Floyd Video Anthology Set on Ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...ategory=23 04

It sounds too good to be true. Any of you have experience with this set?

Re: Too Good To Be True?

It is a whole bunch of videos some guy put together on a DVD cd, not an official release, probably lots of bugs not worth $100 IMO.

You can probably download half those videos off Kazaa.

Thank you YS. I'm too much of a chicken to download anything from Kazaa. Big brother, ya know?

How do I know some hacker is not going to use Kazaa's access to my PC, and hack into my online banking and rip me off?

Er, em. Let me get this straight. Kazaa is based on peer to peer networking, right? That means my PC will be accessible to any other computers on this P2P network, right? Why can't an experienced hacker record my key strokes while I enter my account number and password for my online banking website?

I just think I would be putting myself at a higher risk for hacking if I install and use Kazaa. Same thing with MIRC.

Anyways, the real reason I wouldn't use Kazaa is because it is unethical. I don't believe in getting someone's hard work for free. I'm with Metallica on this one.

Oh, almost forgot, glad I can make the almighty Dr. Cheese laugh. Does it feel good to be so high and mighty and laugh at us imbeciles?

Yes!

Your pc is vulnerable to attack everytime you connect to the internet, not just Kazaa. Have you never heard of a firewall?

I still think trolls under the bridge are more dangerous than that.
