We were at Aromas a couple of nights ago and wanted to share some music we'd each just bought off iTunes. So we set it up to share with each other and I set mine to where no windows (eek!) users could access my drive. For whatever reason I guess David just didn't notice that we were leaving our drives open to other mac users...
We were at Aromas again tonight and there's this d00d there, Scott, who also has an iBook. I messaged him through Rendevous saying he had a nice pic or something.. just to keep up with the friendliness he's always shown me. Anyway, he comes back with, "I can see your music." So I was like, "Oh?" and then leaned over and told David (while I was typing in, "See anything you like?" to Scott.) David throws a fit and demands that I disable my file sharing options. *rolling eyes* This coming from someone who's used various file sharing programs before. Puh-leeze.
So now that I've been working on this post and changing settings and such it's been close to 2 hours...
Seems a little ridiculous to me. All purchased musice from iTunes requires a username & password... so stuff that I've bought that David's using needs to be cleared by my username & password. That's cool and all, if you ask me. I can authorize 3 computers (I think) to play music that I've bought. That's plenty. I only listen to the stuff I have on here anyway...
Thing is.. I'm thinking I could make an audio cd of anything I've bought and then give that to someone else. And they can rip it off that, then convert to .mp3s. So it's all useless?
So yeah... now we're sharing music files and no one else can share with us. *sigh*
We used something called SharePoints... and for a good while it absolutely hated David. lol. Anyhow... looks like now I'm gonna sift through all his stuff 'till I find something worth listening to!
