Reason #1254 to Avoid FilePlanet -- 8:42 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

According to this article, Microsoft gave FilePlanet exclusive downloading rights to an Impossible Creatures stress test. That's all fine and good, except that the folks at GSI sent emails to FileShack and 3DGamers threatening that they would be in violation of the DMCA if they tried to host the file. It's bad enough that FilePlanet absolutely sucks (at least if you don't pay for premium service), now they have to stoop to this?

The Master comments: Pretty soon people are going to start sending DMCA threat letters, requesting that people stop breathing. That is one law that should have never been passed.
