Copyright Infringement rampant

I was recently at a website called www.ppcgeeks.com in the Apache forum and
I noticed they are "sharing" custom ROMs that include many illegal
applications including MS Voice Command v1.6. Isnt this a crime?

Basically in all case: you have to have written permission from all
copyright owners to spread software (even for freeware...).

RE: Copyright Infringement rampant

But if u pay close attention they have made an OEM for MSVC 1.6 and removed
the .exe which makes the program work. Thus the user has to already have a
paid for version to get the .exe. ^_^ wow what a n00b.
