if you can have it for free, why would anybody rent the DVD
I curse the internet - I downloaded SG1 episodes a couple of years back, Then realised I could comfortably watch TV on a 17" monitor. Then I bought DVD's. Tons of them. Then a DVD player, and DVD Rom's, and a widescreen TV, and surround sound and amp. I've got about 75 DVD's now. That s big bucks for a student. I download SG1 epsidoes, then I buy the DVD. I download 24, then I buy the DVD's. I download family guy, futurama, etc.
I own 10 films on DVD that I previously downloaded.
In my case, at least, downloading (even VCD quality) leads to buying more DVDs. Sue me.
You'd feel different if the movie was released aarround the world a few months before you got to see it. For example, I like reading and posting on TrekToday. I'll have to avoid it over christmas if I dont want to be spoiled. Nemesis comes out in the U.S. on 13-Dec. It hits the UK on 3-Jan.
Same applies to TV. I want to talk about the latest episode of 24 - which I can do so if I wait until MARCH for it to air in the UK. However I dont want to find out what happens in the last episode. I got "Lone Gunmanned" on 24 series 1 - There was a story on slashdot saying something like "Dells are evil". I read it, halfway down it said "The mole used a dell". Didnt mention 24, but it was obvious. Of course after that I went looking for who was using a Dell. It was arround noon, and Alberta greene was using one - but she didnt last. I knew nina was the mole at arround 4PM.
Hence this series I download the VCD's, watch them in at least VHS quality, on my widescreen TV, with my girlfriend. No danger of spoilers on slashdot either.
It is not acceptible for my vote to be lost because of a bad fsck.
This is a problem in any system. It's not acceptable for my vote to be lost because of a bad BSOD either.
Just because the system should be open source doesnt mean it should be developed by people on sourceforge. Pay professional engineers to design the system, then build. Release each stage as open source along the way - best of both worlds.
so lets say my house falls down, thanks to some freak flooding. The wall collapses into my neighbours garden and kills their cat. Is it fair I get sued because of an act of god?
Same in the UK. If I hear one more advert with "Bob tripped over his shoelace and received £3000 in compensation, Poor John spilt his pint of beer, and he recieved £10,000! If you've ever done anything ever in the last three years, call this number and we'll get you one million dollars!.
Wasnt there a south park episode where everyone sued everyone else?
But there's hope for the next generation... my 12-year-old daughter just wrote her first Visual Basic program today. You click the button and a MsgBox pops up that says "THIS IS BORING".
True, VB is boring, and harmful. Took me 6 months to get weaned of VB and on to a language with semi-commas.
Start her on something like java

he was sued for quite a hefty bit
ahh, todays society. If your computer gets fried by lightning - you get sued. If your house gets fried, the insurance company say "It's an act of god".
Why must people sue at every possible thing? It ends up with everyone suing everyone, and the only winners are lawyers.
Hang on, my S.O. is a lawyer - well will be in august. Forget that, sue everyone!
Maybe you should do some reading on the Gulf Stream's impact on the climate of northwestern part of Europe.
I live in England, thanks to your stream we dont get snow, but we dont get much sun either. Also it constantly rains. Please change this so I can buy a sledge.

only murder is generally an actual crime.
Actually suicde is a crime, you get put on death row if found guilty.

True, but off topic, please mod as such. The story isnt about theft, its about copyright infringment.

You must first intentionally "have sex" with a GPL'd product (using an editor and a compiler!)
If you type with gloves on are you safe?

Why should the first amendment carry any weight outside the US.
I wish it did, I actually wish the bill of rights carried weight inside the u.s.
I didnt shoot the guy infront of me in the shop today, arent I good?
OK, microsfot isnt using its patent libraries against anyone at the moment, however that should be normal behavior, not congratulationary behavior.
I'm with you. Thank god I don't live in America.

1. Eolas wins, stupid pantent-wavers gain more power.
2. Microsoft wins, no further comments needed.
Both are preferable to #3 - Microsoft buys Eola, and uses the patent against everyone else.
I'm firmly on microsoft's side, and I'd wager even RMS is.
what's the point of the doors?
Something to answer when pizza guy comes round
Yea, and I am sure cruising slashdot on Friday nights helps with the getting laid part...
I ahvent been out to a club in over a year.
I havent got laid for nearly a week.
Clubs are boring, noisy, and useless for any form of communication. A nice quiet pub with real ale, great. Loud trendy stuff? No thanks.

When they are all plugged in, set up, networked, and ready to roll, then you can talk - if they arent set up, whats the point?
The problem is that no one really wants to pay for infrastructure unless they can see the "step n. Profit!"
....
1. Build infrastructure
2.
3. Profit!

Scandinavia will get a rather cold climate.
Err, dude, if you think scandanavia's not cold, I dont want to know where you live!
