This is one of the benefits of being into older, more obscure music. Nobody really cares if you download it Very Happy

I take it you're only fined if you download the new commercial shit from big record labels right?

They will snatch you, dress you in orange and take you to the seaside.

I wonder why they chose orange? I bet there was a big debate over it too.

Despite a few pop cliche songs No Doubt are a seriously underrated Ska/Punk band.

Out of interest, in a trial like that if the jury had come back and unanimously decided the person on trial was innocent, dispite enough evidence to clearly proove she was guilty, would the courts still have to let her get away with it?

No need to snatch. Just hand me my flip-flops and I am there.
