Just a guess, and it won't be the only reason. However, theoretical considerations would indicate that the *price* of a good tends to the *marginal cost of duplication* over time. And when that is artificially prevented from happening, there will be tension in the system. This is what we're seeing happening, when the marginal cost of duplication of any digital good tends toward zero. Udhay -- ((Udhay Shankar N)) ((udhay @ pobox.com)) ((www.digeratus.com))
