Uploading copywrited material is illegal. Downloading it is not. This is one reason why I've stopped using torrents. I can download as much as I want and nothing can happen to me. With torrents if you are seeding you are technically breaking the law.

A simple whois would bring up
Revscene IP:
174.37.158.171
Revscene server location:
Dallas in United States
Revscene ISP:
SoftLayer Technologies
For that matter, that's why the whole JB threads were nerfed at some point, being that this was an invite only forum, it shoulda be slightly more acceptable, but meh..
But the way I figure it... it's Top Gear, no one gives a rats ass who downloads it, because the UK isn't backwards enough to bite the hand that feeds them. That and... we have a $$$$$$$$$$ plugin? this will be the second time I've ever seen that lol
technically, I've had many "C&D" complaints, orders, but shaw/telus/novus (basically whatever ISP i'm on up here) always sends me written mail telling them to fuck off since we're in Canada  | |

You should watch the one where james may goes into space. And also the one when hammond visits Evel Knievel. I thought those were pretty interesting. Not super car show types but still cool nonetheless.
