Complaint Review: 24.7 Downloads.com - Internet

Well, thanks for the "clever" input. As, you and everyone else (including a fetus)in the world knows that sites like Napster and iTunes ARE legal now. Paying $.99 to LEGALLY download the song and obtain a license. Which is what I thought this same company was offering (except in membership form). While I appreciate your advice about being investigated I have nothing to worry about, because, unlike you I have never illegally downloaded any music. Even before the regulation laws were enacted. But, thanks and good luck with your reseach :)

Boz, normally I would totally agree with you about the various file sharing sites online, but I went and read the legal statement this site has up. It does say: "The User shall not transmit, access or communicate any data that infringes upon any patent, trademark, trade secret, copyright or other proprietary rights of any party", thus making their site *appear* to be free of the sharing of warez. (I'm not saying I believe this, just it appears that way by the way they have it worded.) I can see where a person who's rather new online could feel this was a 'safe' site to belong to and get legal files from. I don't know if Rosalena is new online or not, but since she did say a lot more in her report than others have, I feel she could be. That is the only reason I'm taking the time to even speak up myself. I found this on the 247downloads.com site: ---- 24/7 Downloads REFUND POLICY Our company provides a membership based service, and downloadable products that have the potential to be shared, distributed, copied or pirated.

Our word is final and you agree to honor our decision and not pursue a refund further. ---- In plain english, that reads to me as "f---- you very much, now please drive thru and don't collect your money when you pass go". This site is a total RipOff, but does give the appearance of being 'legal' to someone who isn't used to reading between the lines on the internet.

Hi this is Texino writing from the Stem Cell lab: You probably know that Napster and some other "file sharing" sites have been shut down because what the do is allow people to put up all kinds of files for other people to snag. This really gets the software outfits and the music companies riled up because it allows their proprietary files to be had for next to nothing. It is fun to do but it is illeagal and buy you putting all your information up, the feds may just decide to check you out for software piracy! Oh no! I think that the next time someone asks you to spend money in order to do something illeagal, you should think before you act. I mean what can you do? Call the FTC and say "I gave a company money so I could steal files and they ripped me off"? Shucks, even a fetus wouldn't fall for that one and they got no brains what so ever! Heck Texino (that is me!) I used to do stuff like that until they passed the laws. Now that I am in to the big money stem cell harvesting business, I can buy all the software I want. So get out of here you knuckle head and stay out of trouble
