New York Times is reporting that Downloading Music off P2P networks is legal under Canadian law. Problem is: uploading music is illegal under Canadian law. Simple point: There is an inherent contradiction in their position. At least a few people would have to be illegally uploading music in order to enable the perfectly legal downloading!
I too believe downloading should be legal, but this position makes little sense.
