And you have a much smaller music collection because you have to buy it all yourself to own it. So I am not sure what freedom it it you think you have that I don't? I can just buy it if i really want it but mostly it's available.

So it simply make no sense to talk about freedom in this context.

You are confusing two very different things.

Not sure when this turned into a dick swinging context but, let me explain: you don't "have" a music collection, by definition mine is bigger.

[ThomPete]

No by definition you own more than i do. But I have access to more than you do.

The difference is subtle but important.

I can listen to exactly the same music as you can and much much more.

Until the day said access is unilaterally revoked.

Or until the day your house burned down.

Guess who is most vulnerable?
