Maybe even after the update the disks might explode in 60 seconds or some other Mission Impossible like thing....

LOL!

Hey why not? Disney used to sell DVDs for $5 that would expire in 48 hours, once the disc was removed from an airtight pouch. Too bad they buckled to environmentalists afraid of more waste in the dumps LOL Poor Mickey Mouse

so why worry about publicly trading here, the software would be available in the 'usual places' for that kinda thing wouldnt it?

I'm sure that if we all put our heads together, we'll come up with something.

Oh and PaisanNYC, you N3 guys still have to pitch in. It's a new Man Law!

Cheers,

Kevin

Sorry,

I read that new Man Law wrong. You're right, it does say drink lots of beer and hit on all the hot ladies.

What was I thinking ? I think maybe I should look into some corrective lenses!

Because of

1: If we get all "We are all going to pirate the update" even before it comes out and Pioneer thinks this is going to happen they can either make it much more expensive or adjust the way they are going to do it (that might make it harder for us) if they think this is a decent revenue stream for them.

And the much more important one...

2. I don't want to get Jason in trouble. If you go to the12volt.com or many other forums, they will not tolerate any talk about nav screen bypasses do to possible legal issues associated with watching video while driving. I know things eventually get shared in the "usual places" no matter if it's a nav update or the new version of windows or photoshop. These "usual places" tend to give some protection to the poster. If Pioneer sees lots of threads on how to pirate their new update (that they charge for), I wouldn't be surprised to see Jason get a letter warning him of legal action if he doesn't put a stop to that. I would like to make sure that doesn't happen.

Not that I'm going to stop any of this speculative talk at this time and I'm not chastising anyone for what was talked about so far. This update won't be ready for months. But I just want people to think about how posting something so specific on how and where to pirate something might effect Jason and his forum. That's the main reasons to "worry about it". When it comes out, I'm sure that some people will be able to install this update without paying for it. I'm sure Pioneer knows this will happen as well. If there becomes a link here to a copywrited file or a thread saying how to get around paying it could cause ramifications to Jason.... and I think as a thank you for letting us congregate here, we should try to make sure that doesn't happen.

That was my thought on it.

Well said Ducatiboy!

Okay boys...We Z1 owners don't pirate software. Only PaisanNYC and the N3 boys pirate software.

I also think PaisanNYC is the one starting all og that damn spam on here. What do you guys think?

Yes sir Mr OSUV!

You send me $28,000USD by Western Union to my business office in Nigeria, and I send you $40,000,000 inheritance!

Yours truly,

Barrister PaisanNYC

well what i meant was, instead of posting about theoretical legal issues, why not just hush and get it in the usual places. that would keep the site safe.

Bad joke I guess..... Sorry I'll remove it.

Don't know if you guys care or not but Windows Vista is finally scheduled for release on January 30, 2007. This is the replacement and the end for Windows XP!

Hurray my new laptop is already outdated...... you know I almost forgot why I got out of computers in the first place.

So you are posting this via smoke signals? Now that's talent!

Haha you're very funny. I think you know what I meant. If you did, could you please tell me cause I'm confused now.

vista sucks at the moment theres LOTS of work needed still.

Haha you're very funny. I think you know what I meant. If you did, could you please tell me cause I'm confused now.
