Let me explain it:
Guy builds torrent site.
Guy fills torrent site with a bunch of torrents to all kinds of music.
People start coming to the site because it has free music on it.
Site gets popular.
Guy sells advertising or puts some kind of advertising on the site.
Guy makes money from said advertising.
Guy profits DIRECTLY from copyright infringement.

it funny but you just proved my point with your next statement
Quote:
Every person who visits a torrent site to download music is not covered by fair use. Even if half of them are that means half of them are not that means half of the income from that site is derived from copyright infringement.

the key difference in this case is that 100% of the list is infringement, there is no fair use that can make it 50% legitimate
which means they know every single sale made is made without the authorization of the copyright holder BEFORE the sale is made.
Converse the torrent site has no way of know which person is using the torrents for recovery and which are committing copyright infringement until after the person connects to torrent and downloads the file.

Now here is where you explain to me how torrents work and DMCA and you can't kill a technology because some people use it for illegal purposes and someone somewhere in Canada paid an extra 6 cents on a blank CD they bought which means you can download all the music you want for free and another guy can't get to a record store and doesn't have a credit card so he can't use Itunes or something similar so he has no choice but to get his music from the torrent sites and really every use anyone could ever come up with for downloading music off the torrent site is actually covered by fair use.

well you did explain it already so i don't have too.
however i noticed you mixed in something that was not fair use to try and justify invalidating what is fair use
i have highlight the bogus part, of course i have done that multiple times before for you and you keep doing it so either your an idiot with a reading and comprehension level of 2nd grader or your are deliberately doing it to try and make your bogus point.
