    In any of these cases, what has he lost? Nothing. You weren't going to plop down $7 for his paperback anyhow.

    And now you don't have an incentive to ever plot down $7 because YOU ALREADY HAVE IT.

    I despite that argument because it's never any less illogical. It's dependent on a ton of maybes.

  2. TOO BAD THE SLASH MODS DON'T GET IT! by jbottero · · Score: 0, Troll

    It's really too bad that the Slash Mods classifiy as "troll" or "flamebait" anything that they don't agree with, even if it is a valid point. And the parent raises a valid point. When you code for "The Man", he owns your work. When you make music for "The Man", he owns your work, and thus can do with it what He pleases.
