Hard to say which people are the greater S holes - greedy record Co.s
pissing off honest buyers, or millions of people stealing music by the
gigabyte.
Let's see, what came first - copy protection or MP3...? ;-(
--------------
The inability for the record companies to think of new revenue streams and
secure, digital distribution systems before these hackers came to be.  This
would have alleviated the proliferation of audio piracy as there would have
been a simple mechanism by way of ease of charging for copyrighted material.

Sure it woulda happened inevtably anyway, but really, you gotta ask why 8
years after the Intenet became a populous communications tool, do the record
companies still not have a proper digital rights distribution system?
