You do realize that not all schools are state-funded, right? Try pulling that shit at Rice or a similar private tech school and watch them laffo your asso. By the same token, however, I have no idea how universities are funded in India. So, take that for what it's worth.

French MPs Consider P2P Downloads Again 194

Posted by Zonk on Friday March 03, 2006 @03:32PM from the swashbucklers-beware dept.

gregbains writes "French MPs are preparing to vote again on a proposal that would allow users to download music and movies in exchange for a flat fee per month. This announcement caused outrage from the music and movie groups, but excitement from the vast majority of civilians." From the BBC article: "A report by the Economic and Social Council which advises parliament on new laws argued that P2P exchanges should be made legal. Meanwhile France's highest court, the Cour de Cassation, ruled there was no automatic right for consumers to make private copies of their own DVDs. As MPs prepare to vote again, backing for the global licence remains strong despite the government's opposition."
