Like I said, could you imagine the headlines? It's one thing to sue a rapper for using Pacman sounds in one of his songs since he's likely to have the money, but suing a blind game developer who is just one person is far more likely to attract unfavorable attention than suing some rich rapper dude. Most people would ignore the rapper, but not everybody would ignore suing a blind person. If Lucas Arts took Thomas Ward to court the papers would probably have a field day with the fact that they went after one blind individual because they were too greedy to make their own games accessible. Time is an illusion, lunchtime doubly so. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Robin Kipp" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'Gamers Discussion list'" <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, December 21, 2007 10:41 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Copyrighted material
