How come its illegal to host dc browser 3 but it is leagl to host v2.6

planetweb 3 did not get released for free as the previous versions did. I think its about 15 bucks to buy it from planetweb.

I find the legality of hosting 2.6 questionable as well... just because something is free doesn't mean it is legal to copy..

ie, watching a movie on over-the-air TV is free but you can't start copying it and giving it away.

Yes true it is illegal to copy to a form of media and give it away, but that is because technically you are paying them by viewing the commercials. Even though a person might leave commercials in the video they will become outdated as time passes and possibly show media that is not true. Like lets say a person records a simpson episode and a year later someone goes to watch it. Well there is a Commercial saying Come to Burger King cause we got chicken sandwichs for 99 cents this week only. Well obviously a year later it would not be going on.

As for The 2.6 version it may be illegal but there is no reason for anyone to care. As long as a person downloads a unedited file of it and burns it that saves planetweb the cost of produceing and shipping it to someone.

Anybody in the mood for a Chicken Sandwich now?

Oh ya, forgot to say what i was going to say....

After 2.6 came out (DC Mag Feb 2k1) i ordered a disc from the site (for free)....turned out to be 2.0 -.-

Same thing happened to me. I ordered the 2.6 and they sent me 2.0.
I couldnt get 2.6 legal way if I tried.

I'm not bothered by the legality.. I'm just pointing out a fact.

I sent for 2.6 and got it for free and it came with some demos on it like Typing of the Dead and some online 4x4 racing game

So does that mean this site could host Dreamkey 3.0? Because that is free right. And it would save the company shipping charges right?

Does dreamkey 3 only work on europe dcs?

We here on the other side of the pond are starving for a new browser......

What version was suspected to flash your internal memory?

DoughBoy · Post by **DoughBoy** » Mon Feb 18, 2002 3:25 pm

version 2.6 is the one that flashes ur internal memory.

madcow3001 · Post by **madcow3001** » Mon Feb 18, 2002 4:11 pm

what is "flashing" the internal memory?

iantri · Post by **iantri** » Mon Feb 18, 2002 7:09 pm

I believe, in this context, that it means that it modifies (or erases) your Dreamcast's internal memory, which contains ISP data.

I believe this also @#%@s up PSO Ver 2.

Can someone confirm this?

whats the diff between dreamkey 3 and $15 planetweb? and what do each support?

I have the Planetweb Browser 2.6 and it hasn't caused any problems for me on any online games, namely Phantasy Star Online v2. I even used that version to edit my ISP information when my old ISP expired.

I haven't had any problems with it at all.
