[QUOTE="Miffle, post: 400611, member: 28840"] As per usual, Village Idiot is correct! For the record I am a member of Oink, I don't really see what Jacob is talk about. If you search free MP3 downloads, you are bound to (at one point or another) to pick up some kind of spyware on a windows computer, that is common sense. Oink is a prime example, good quality music (Most of it with technical infomation about the encoding) and a brilliant community, some people have bought the stuff they download some people haven't.. I won't go into the ethics. I don't understand fully what kind of person Jacob was talking about but you can be a heavy downloader on any platform, I sometimes download 12GB of files a week (Probably not every week, some its probably only 500MB) and I am yet to get a virus because of the sources I choose to obtain my data from. In contrast, someone can buy a mac, click on as many things as tey want, download viruses for a windows platform. I have been told that these viruses can then be passed on to windows machines. Its just how you use a computer and your state of mind towards a computer. [/QUOTE]
