I didn't endanger people when "pirating" Metallica's (well, ACDC and Twisted Sisters rather) CDs when i was younger (and a lot poorer, single unqualified mom in a small city and all that). Emule and bittorent helped me get access to a culture i didn't even know existed, brought me awy from TV shows and helped me learn english and to books i now own. I'm sorry for Butcher, Feist and Sanderson early years, but i think i have the whole collection now, and i couldn't afford to buy those books anyway (i don't think i could even find them in my country) Drunk driving just made me gain 40 minutes while probably endangering a dozen people (and i immediately stopped after the first time). Also every time i buy storage i pay a tax to Universal and other CP owner while not having any licenced music (unless they own Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninov, Pachelbel, and a lot of pre-63 music in general) on those storage. Also they should give 40% of that tax to the Linux foundation since packer and weird images are taking almost half my disk space? Anyway, i know how prod works, more than half of them are parasites and don't add any value (well, not exactly, they add their daddy political connections, that's something). It does not surprise me, what is surprising to me is that this many people defend them. |
