So....

If I pay for a month of hosting but don't use it can I timeshift my use to later?

If I pay for a month of cell phone access but don't use it can I timeshift the usage to a later time?

If I pay for a concert ticket but don't use it can I timeshift my listening/viewing rights to a later show?

If I buy a movie theatre ticket but don't go can I timeshift my viewing rights to a later theatre showing?

If I rent a car for a month but don't pick it up do I get to have a free 'timeshifted' car for a month of my choosing next year?

... etc etc etc

NO

posting content in a publically accessable place is not timeshifting - its theft/fraud for profit.

publically posting complete unaltered works owned by someone else is not 'salvage / timeshifting / fair use' - not now - not ever. It is in no way condoned by any fair use provisions. All legal provisions allow for PRIVATE use/backup/storage/timeshifting. In no way does it allow for PUBLIC access/sharing. Clouds/torrents/fileshare technologies are not private.

and thats pretty much where giddyboy fails - PUBLIC vs. PRIVATE.

and he/she/it will fail on that point forever
