itunes

here's a fun dilemma.

so i was just checkin my podcasts when i was reminded of something that happened in college.

as you probably know, itunes lets you share your music on the network with other itunes users. for whatever reason limewire uses the same protocols, so you can access limewire shares through itunes. i don't think most people realize that.

my roommate didn't realize that. i logged onto his limewire share thinking i could score some music. instead i found his porn collection. he had somewhat exotic tastes.

so what would you do then? tell him? or let it go, since he isn't the most open person about his shenanigans.

before I answer your question ...

AHAHHAHAHAAHHA. What a situation.

Personally, I would want to know if you could hack into my porn. Haha.

Though, maybe in his situation you should politely ignore it? If you think its going to cause some awkwardness between the two of you?

HAHA what the! Did you do anything yet? I'm not sure. Is honesty always the best policy? How awkward.

haha this happened in college. so i ended up not saying anything at all. i figured there weren't that many people using itunes (i think) so it shouldn't have mattered. i might have mentioned something to him down the road about how 'it's interesting that limewire shares on itunes' but i don't recall exactly. in any case, he did stop sharing his stuff on the network. i suppose he noticed.

well this happened to me too. i mean, i was in chris' position. and i ended up telling the person, and it turned out that his former hallmates had downloaded 4 gigs of porn and hid it in random places on his computer. it was pretty funny watching him discover all of it. he was really pissed off..
