    i have downloaded so much freaking music over the last couple of years. unless i lost my memory in between those years i don't think i've gone to prison. i think the only way you can get into trouble is if you download something and try to sell it to somebody else. other then that i think you will be fine.

    eternal_w- same here. Then again I'm not STUPID enough to do something like that moron who uploaded the latest Wii Super Mario game and ended up being caught by Nintendo.
    PROTIP - Stay AWAY from new stuff or at least don't go around bragging about it!

    I have about 270 gigs or 340 gigs of just stuff I downloaded that is illegal :/ not counting the stuff I deleted awhile ago.
    ps2 games took way more space then I thought, plus pc games but now I just buy my pc games and most the non pirated ps2 games on my computer take around 25 gigs all together but I've yet to get the rest on my computer :/
    really the only pc games I steal are import ero lol buy the rest.

    out of curiosity, how safe is this site? when i found it 6 years ago, all i had to do was google 'download gba for free'. couldnt a cop just do that and shut the site down?

    I don't know of a single cop who has jurisdiction on the internet. So, no.

    for games, yeah i think i would do that, but not for songs or movies.

    Graeystone- or at least as you said, don't brag when you got the newest on whatever you downloaded
    illegally

    I think we're safe on this website.I'm fairly new to emulating, it will be a year this summer, but I'm careful enough so I don't get caught. I think that if you are smart about it and don't pull stupid shit, you'll be fine. I'm not really worried about it.
