One of my idiot friends decided to torrent season 5 of "Archer" without my permission and I got an email from FOX about copyright infringement that demanded I remove the files. No actions will be taken against me or anything, that's not what I'm really bitching about, and it's understandable.

What I'm bitching about, is that if I'm getting emails from FOX for downloading a TV show, now should I be scared to download fanedits as well? Also I was planning on someday releasing a fanedit of my own, and am now having serious cold feet about it.

Ouch, I am not sure what to tell you.

I once got a friend in trouble because once while I was at his house I downloaded Adam West's Batman, now please bear in mind that this was years before it was released on DvD so I have no idea how someone could get in trouble for that it's not like anyone was losing any money so I have no idea how this stuff works or how anyone could get into trouble for a fan edit.

Since then I have used a prepaid phone card thing for all of my downloading and have never had another problem.
