How do I steal off someone's ITunes

[markvid]

I am sitting in the Westin in Chicago, and I opened up my ITunes while doing some paperwork.
On the left side, up came a tab for someone's library, and there is a lot of stuff in there I'd like to grab. I'm assuming we're on the same high-speed hub, but I cannot see his hard drive.
Any suggestions on how to grab this? Or am I SOL?

Take him out back, kick the **** out of him.

Try downloading OurTunes

i don't condone this, but you could try dragging tunes from his library onto your library.

this happens at my workplace. i can listen to another person's music but i have never tried grabbing their songs and putting them in my library. i have my library password protected, so yahoos can't view/listen to my music.

I tried dragging tunes to mine before I started this thread, no luck. Oh, well.

I am not very technically savvy, so I'd just steal his ipod when he's not looking. Problem solved.

Why?

You start by not posting it on the internet.

Uh, perhaps because the thread title is about stealing from someone else's iTunes library. ::)

I'd also highly recommend against it.

It's not stealing because they still have it.

bp and fdp, i'm not so much concerned about stealing from the owner of the tunes, it's stealing from the artist that concerns me. also, i don't think anyone who doesn't pay for tunes is a sinner. i'm just in the artists' corner -- not the record company either -- on this one.

You know markvid, if you really wanted Hanson's "Mmmbop" -- all you had to do was say so.

My point was that you said you had yours password protected so no one could "view/listen" to your music in the same sentence in which you said you listen to other people's music. You didn't say you, or they, were stealing it, just listening to it at work.

I don't get why you'd lock others out of your library when you peruse and listen to theirs.

My post had nothing to do with the thread title. It was in response to Funky's post about his decision to password protect his library while still listening to others' music at his workplace. Has nothing to do with stealing, it's more about sharing.

 

[funky_mountain]

bigpern, i should have been clearer. i can -- meaning it is possible -- listen to other people's tunes. it's a feature when people have itunes on the same network. but i do not listen. another reason i block it -- it's not so much against sharing but more about what people might find offensive. if i have a comic or band or song that someone finds offensive, i'd just rather avoid that discussion whether it's with my boss or HR. (though, i'm sure HR would apologize to me). also sent you a PM.

Ah, gotcha.

If you're going to want to "borrow" songs from someone else, but copyright your own library, that's a whole different ballgame I wouldn't condone.

kill him.

OurTunes or MyTunes is a program you want to get. But, you must be on the same network for that to be able to work. You just cant go stealing off anyone's iTunes.

Going back and reading your post again, I think I just inferred that you DO listen to other people's stuff because you said you CAN. My mistake.

The offensive/not offensive argument is a good one to avoid.

Yes.

Can't swing 99 cents a song? The Westin will charge you 10 times that much just for looking at the mini-bar.
