Yeah how can you selective criticize copyright violations of software, but not music?

That's why I don't charge for BearShare!

If anything, its the software manufacturers that deserve to take it in the pants!

How can Microsoft charge companies for Windows 2000 Advanced Server, based on the NUMBER OF INCOMING connections it receives (client access licensing)?

That's like Sony charging for its televisions based on the number of people who are going to watch it!

How can Partition Magic charge $249 for Partition Magic which doesn't work on NT Server or 2000 Advanced Server, and make you pay $599 for "Server Magic" which DOES work on those operating systems, even though THE CODE IS THE SAME!!!!

GIVE ME A BREAK!


FYI I heard that backstreet boys generated over $300 million in revenue with album sales, but received less than $7 million for their effort.
