Sharing Music

What's the deal with everyone deciding to stop sharing music on iTunes?

It is impossible to send both TCP and UDP packets between ResNet computers. This basically means nothing can be sent from anyone to anyone else. As such people outside of ResNet have more access to ResNet than those inside. Kind of weird isn't it.

Stopping these transmissions reduces the number of viruses on ResNet and stops illegal file sharing.

There is currently a petition being complied and sent to the Director of ITS.

People haven't, but ITS (in its infinite wisdom) has seen fit to restrict resnet access to your local subnet (about 15 rooms/3 flats in DRA) rather than the workgroup (ie all of DRA). Check out the wired soc board for the rants on it.
