As a steam user I have followed you for a while, as a torrentfreak regular I have followed your case since Day 1. I have a few questions about the whole thing, but I understand if you can't answer them.

  1. Early on the reports were that you were going to fight it. Was it that you guys believed what you were doing was legal, or we're you fighting it on principal and trying to send a message?

  2. From my understanding, one of the pros of Aurous was that it was going to be P2P sharing, yet the Alpha grabbed the audio from MP3 websites. Do you think it affected the case in anyway? Had it been using P2P 100% from the start do you think things maybe have turned out differently?

  3. Near I the end (IIRC) you guys offered to shutdown but the RIAA wanted none of it. A lot of commenters at torrentfreak felt you might have been pushing the envelope a little too far for too a little long by continuing to fight, releasing source code, and reopening Strike. How do you feel about that sentiment? If you could do things over again, would you?

Sorry for all the case related questions, it is a subject that is very personal to me. Like I said, I get you may not be able to answer these, I understand. Either way thanks for your contributions to the community and I look forward to your future work.
