Ah. So that's why the computer age fizzled out so early.
Why, oh why, did I ever make that copy of Hopper?
No!!!!!

Whoever wrote "is it just me, or does the first 5 seconds of this sound like a porno? the girl makes a moan that cannot be justified by video games" was spot on.

We had a discussion about this years and years ago. It's propaganda for the intellectual property profiteers.

I don't have the right to make money off my digital creations?

It's propaganda because of the hyperbole and unnecessary drama.
I copied many and many a 'floppy' back in the day and, lo and behold, the computer age didn't dry up. Software manufacturers are still raking in the dough.
In fact, the open source model is proving to be a contender in the battle between programming styles. The secretive age of software tyrancy may come to an end at some point.

You do have the right to do whatever you want with any thing that cannot be owned. MORON!

Yeesh !

Couldn't stomach that crap-rap !

Ironic, though - that they would use a genre practically notorious for cobbling together "beats" from other tunes to deliver the message " Don't copy stuff ".

:D

Somebody should make a song about don't be dumb enough to pay for media.
I have been fileshaing" for years. I pay for fast internet connection for fast browsing whether filesharing exists or not.
As for purchasing media. I have not bought a CD, DVD, software since the beginning of 2001. In the time since then, I might have acatually paid for media on barely a handful of occassions. In my entire life as I know it, I have only paid for 3 DVDs. One of them was $1.00 at Wal-Mart. Then I made "back-ups" to sell for $5.00. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!
