Any luck with Michael Linares SimpleNursing

Published

Hello I am a going to school to become a RN and was wanting to know has anybody had any luck with Michael Linares SimpleNursing program not the NCLEX75 but the monthly course for $40.00....I just want to purchase something that will help me better understand content. Please somebody say something good about his course because I really can't affort to pay for the Hurst program for $300 although I believe that would be a better course for me to purchase.

Interesting that you ask...I was talking with someone yesterday who mentioned the website to me and she said that it is awesome and that her instructors highly recommend it. I usually just use YouTube, but the reviews for the site seem to be very good.

Youtube is my skills savior!

I'm not arguing with you. I don't know who posted it and I didn't get to copy it so, I'm out. Not something I'd do. I wouldn't be giving away that kind of money to strangers.

Well actually you said you did
Someone posted a link yesterday to 20-30 books that would normally cost you 400+ easily. That was very nice of them. Now I have a ton of supplemental material is never be able to afford.
The thing is...if that was you writing the book and you poured you life's sweat into that book wouldn't you like to know that people bought that information instead of only buying one book and sharing it for free? If you didn't buy the book you should not have access to that information. If you do, technically, it is copyright infringement.
The Digital Millennium Copyright Act, passed in 1998, does require ISPs to have a policy to terminate "repeat infringers,"

More and more publishers are filing lawsuits for copyright infringement...especially music...Music publishers finally pull the trigger, sue an ISP over piracy | Ars Technica

Cox's actual policy is to refuse to suspend, terminate, or otherwise penalize subscriber accounts that repeatedly commit copyright infringement through its network in any meaningful numbers."

Cox has ignored "overwhelming evidence," and the complaint lists a few examples. A "Cox subscriber account having had IP address 70.168.128.98 at the time of the infringement, believed to be located in Fairfax, Virginia, was used to infringe twenty-four particular copyrighted works 1,586 times since December 9, 2013," they note. "Cox subscriber having IP address 24.252.149.211 engaged in 39,432 acts of copyright infringement over 189 days."

As with anything on the internet...buyer/user beware

So, what's the difference if someone gave away their paper copy of the book? Is that the same as stealing? I still think it was a nice gesture and if they post the link again, I plan to save it. I guess I'm going to jail.
