I have a friend problem for download illegal music 40'000 files and pays 26'000 chf ( 30'000 $) last year the laws it's stupid

[nForc3r]

So is it safer to host there compared to NL etc?

Any experiences hosting in Switzerland ?

The other side of piracy, based on the Dutch study, is that downloaders are reported to be more frequent visitors to concerts, and game downloaders actually bought more games than those who didn?t. And in the music industry, lesser-know bands profit most from the sampling effect of file-sharing.

The overall suggestion the Swiss government communicates to the entertainment industries is that they should adapt to the change in consumer behavior, or die. They see absolutely no need to change the law because downloading has no proven negative impact on the production of national culture.

Two Thumbs Up..

Its still not safe to host ur shit on Swiss server, as they allow downloading just for personal use. And distributing on forum for others use is not called "personal use" according to me....

[nForc3r]

Well you have to download it somewhere for "personal use" right?

To me, non personal use would be burning disks and selling it on the street.

[Krack3r]

every country should copy what they are doing... esp US

the stench of illumanati is in the mist

Its time to hate Swiss Government now

Don't just think as an downloader :/ think about the content owners. They would suffer a decline in their money making index
