Digital music forum: So should I delete my 360 Share Pro?

* The 'sharing' of copyrighted music is illegal, so the chances of you getting caught really shouldn't matter.

* Simply having P2P software downloaded and installed doesn't constitute an illegal act in most countries. Instead, it's what you use such programs to download.

* The RIAA, MPAA, etc are mainly targeting those that 'share' in bulk...that is, a couple hundred downloads. Why? There are thousands, if not millions, of people committing piracy. Since they can't find and prosecute them all they go for the 'bigger fish' first.

* No one is exempt from prosecution, however. They have gone after the 'little fish' as well to make that point...you commit a crime and you risk doing the time.

* There's no telling what the authors/distributors of 360 Share Pro will do. They are known to be fraudulent and scam users, so I'd keep an eye on the credit card billings from now on. You can dispute charges, but that doesn't prevent them from charging you in the first place.

* Just to be clear, the purchase of 360 Share Pro does not give you any right to download copyrighted music.

If you're wise you'll uninstall the software and delete any copyrighted content you may have downloaded, then hope that your name doesn't appear on the next list the RIAA issues.

yet.

That's the key word.

The music company's are just making up a bunch of crap so they can make money.
Yes, I do have a friend that got busted...and got 3 years in jail on a reduced sentence. He was selling music and movies out of his house like it was a crack house. The police thought they were doing a drug bust but all he had was boot leg DVD's and CD's.
I guess what I am trying to tell you is if you are running a illegal business of any kind you will get busted. first you have to make money and it sound like you are not running a business. So don't worry. instead of scarring kids company's like Sony should do what they are good at which is making TV's and computers.

These are both legal for filesharing material you have PERMISSION to share. Having or paying for the software DOESN'T give you permission. If you are the copyright owner, meaning you wrote or are the artist, you can upload the songs on 360 Share Pro (or Limewire) and give permission to others to share your songs. Or you may want to share your home movies. These are examples of legal uses. So, 360 Share Pro doesn't have to give you back your money because of the legal issues. Of course, they should give you your money back because it's not working. Good luck with that. From what I've been reading in the forums, I've seen a lot of complaints and no resolution. If you paid by credit card, you can open up a dispute with your credit card company. Maybe you can get your money back that way.

well I was looking for limewire when I somehow inadvertently downloaded 360sharepro for I dunno 20 bucks???

And at first it worked fine but for the longest time I thought I had downloaded the upgraded version of LimeWire. The clever copying of a similar interface probably was the reason that I continued to be fooled. Until I tried to get support, I was quite happy...I could access the songs I wanted to hear and sometimes it was a PITA but I ended up getting most of material by being persistent and creative.

Now, if I open the program it locks out any other online service I am on, including messenger and just basic internet, until I reboot. The website has NO active links so you are on your own. They took my money and probably millions of other peoples too. It was called a one time fee. Great~!!!! Lets empower all these scam-artists to take a dollar from a million people so that they can realize the American Dream... isn't it... "get rich with no accounting for morality" and yes thats cynical, but to hell with these opportunists...lets crush 'em....

My opinion....thats all

hi no they wont charge you again.

that seems to be normal for this company. i am having similar issues. but they do not send out the new password usually for at least 24 hours. and i believe only monday through friday.
i have emailed them for some issues in the past and the response has taken up to 3 days.
good luck

same thing happen to me, stated 1.99 one time 7 day trial fee, and then their email revealed they bill me 12dollars. Stated I was getting bonus software which was Netspy Protector. Not sure this is worth 10dollars but I am using it, you have to what out for crazy computer viruses when you use P2P. I know this from experience when using KAAZAA back in the days of dialup isp.

i wrote back in march about the problems i was having connecting and now its all fine. All you have to do is write a ticket to them and within 24 hours they will respond with the solution.They are very helpful. I wrote to 360SharePro 5 times before i found the problem with mine. Some of the problems are in the settings and the version of windows, but the biggest problem was i have vista and 3 firewalls,
finally it was the firewalls holding me from getting connected. When i turned off the firewalls (including Norton) it all worked fine.You can turn off your firewall while downloading but turn it back on when you are done.But if your still having problems connecting just write them a ticket. Scott

hello


I rebooted my computer and now i can't find my 360 share pro. i can't even find it under programs. how do i get it back

360share pro is a scam and encludes oodles of trojans within its downloads

both me and my mum are confused about the legal part of 360 share pro.
we've had it for just over two years but have recently heard a lot about people being prosecuted for it.
my mum payed the 'one off fee' thinking this makes it legal because she's payed but is it?
we had one problem with it but i sorted that out easily and since then it's been fine, it was the fact that it needed updating
so could someone fill us in on whether we should be in jail right now or not
thanks

If you're getting popular music/artists, and even the not-so-popular ones, chances are what what you've downloaded is illegal. You do know that 360 Share Pro is a peer to peer file sharing network (such as Limewire and the old Napster before they went legitimate)? So when you're getting music, you're not getting it from the company that makes 360 Share Pro. You're getting it from someone's share files on their computer. And other people may be getting their music off your computer. Whether you do share or not depends on your settings, I guess. And the only way any of this is legal is if they or you are the copyright owners (they/you wrote, published, or performed the songs or own them because they/you are the record label that puts out the songs).

Merely paying for the program doesn't bypass any of this. Somewhere toward the bottom of the homepage of their website is this statement or something close to it:

"The purchase of a membership, however, is not a license to upload or download copyrighted material. We urge you to respect copyright and share responsibly. Click here for info on using p2p safely."

This little statement is an attempt to absolve their company of any liability.

Chances are you won't go to jail for it. Chances are you won't get caught. You never know. But the music industry, especially in the United States, want to prosecute people in civil court as a deterrent. Their usual tactic is to initially sue for millions of dollars then try to settle out of court for a fraction of that.

Read this recent case which made news late last year about Jammie Thomas in Wikipedia:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jammie_Thomas

I have yet to hear of a case where actual big money or even small payouts happened. But if you get sued, you have to get a lawyer, and that costs money, time, and a mess of headaches.

I can't find any phone # to call, or any e-mail address to cancel. I've tried since 10 minutes after I gave my money. I have had virus after virus from downloading from their site. Does ANYONE know what to do about getting your money back? I paid the the year & $1.29 per month fee. I am furious!

Someone PLEASE, PLEASE help,
Thanks in advance,
