Copyright infringement is illegal. Talking about copyright infringement is not.

Torrent files also aren’t illegal.

Also, you’re on the internet, which isn’t beholden solely to US copyright laws, so unless you’re a lawyer who specializes in international copyright law, I doubt you can speak with any certainty to the legality of post content in every jurisdiction across the globe.

Here’s an idea: if you don’t want to see that content, block the community.

There’s a few things at play:

• Radio stations tend to play “radio edits” which are usually versions of a song that may have a bridge or section of the song removed or shortened to fit play length requirements

• Radio stations have commercial breaks which break up blocks of music and provide your brain with a different “variety” of sound (voices/speech) as opposed to a CD or playlist that plays music with no breaks

• Similarly, radio stations typically have a host or DJ who will announce song names/info between tracks playing, giving your brain a brief break between songs.

damn that's crazy

Correct. Trolling, and badly might I add.

Torrent files do not contain any copyrighted material and it’s not my job to educate you on how they work.

I dont really give a shit why you think anything.

Why not host your own lemmy instance and defederate with them then?

Dumbass

You know what people tend to say when they’re wrong?

You’re arguing semantics

The law is semantics you dolt.

You’re not even on lemmy.world how does this concern you at all?

“[email protected]” is a weird way to spell “lemmy.world”

You can keep replying if you want to keep getting dunked on, your funeral.

So go host your own instance.

Considering your account was created 3 hours ago, and the content you’ve posted so far, nothing of value will be lost.

Thanks for the entertainment.

Also: some radio stations do play songs slightly faster than their album versions play, which cab shorten a song by a handful of seconds. This allows them to cram in those announcer breaks between songs or potentially play additional ads.

I think this is less common now than it used to be though.

I’ve explained in a variety of ways how torrent files are not inherently illegal, nor is discussion of piracy.

I’ve accurately countered every poorly conceived point you’ve tried to make, and your response has been to:

• call me a “dirty pirate” (lol)
• insinuate my point is null because the account I’m posting from isn’t hosted on lemmy.world (neither is yours)
• accuse me of misrepresentation

Take the loss, shut up, move on. You aren’t entertaining anymore.

I’ll make this easy for everyone - you’re blocked, and I’ll sprinkle in a nice report to the lemm.ee admins, as I’m sure they will be curious to know why a 3 hour old account is trying in bad faith to dictate federation rules on a server they aren’t a member of.
