Fair enough. I've already expressed my preference for the legal system, so I'd honestly say I PREFER the **AA's "sue everyone" legal campaign over DRM, because: 1) Unlike DRM, it could theoretically actually stop an act of piracy 2) Unlike DRM, it could have a deterrent effect on future piracy 3) Unlike DRM, it theoretically allows the full range of fair use So basically my answer would be a modification to the "sue everyone" campaign but with some basic preliminary fact-checking before the suit is filed. Now I bet it's my turn to be flamed ;) -- CatBus ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CatBus's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7461 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53460 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
