Replying To:
Ebay/Paypal (none / 0) (#7)

Seems to me that since Ebay and Paypal charge for their services in assisting to sell an item, that they are profiting from the sale of copyrighted materials and as such should be held as responsible as the seller because of that profit. Let me put it another way. You have a car for sale. I help you by finding a buyer. I deliver the car and take the money. I then give you the money for your car and you give me a finders fee. Guess which TWO go to jail if the car was a stolen vehicle.
