You obviously don't have respect for the work of others, so I'm not surprised.
So, essentially, we are required by some misplaced sense of loyalty to travel to an art museum to view a painting and pay for admission rather than just google image it.
Like I said..I'm all for people receiving credit for their work. I think ripping music is wrong, but that doesn't mean it's going to stop. A line exists between being trivial and being realistic. What you are saying is trivial and an overstated representation of how things should be.
Last but not least, it was an article from a free website, and free websites subject themselves to the possibility of the very thing you are campaigning against. Is it right? No. So, at least we agree on something.
I think it's time this thread got back on track before this commentary forces a mod to lock the thread.
