Usually I hear a song on the radio that I like and then obtain a copy of the album for myself. I don't have the time or the inclination to scour pbscure message boards to find bands that are just too good to be popular.
There's a reason most of that music can't get distributed. It's crap.
PS correcting people's spelling in a non grammar/spelling related thread is just childish.

"First and foremost, a license is a contract. Unfortunately, the fundamental nature of licensing as a contractual relationship has often been buried in other concerns."
Here is some relevant case law:
Micro Data Base Systems, Inc., Plaintiff-Appellant, Cross-Appellee, v. Dharma Systems, Inc., Defendant-Appellee, Cross-Appellant
148 F.3d 649
Opinion by Posner, the guy who wrote the textbook on Contract Law. Find any distinction in the language of the opinion distinguishing contract and license.
If you don't understand that "get out of Iraq" means "giving up and letting Hussein have his way" then there there's probably a reason you think Dean's got a chance.
Do you really think any significant regulation of Wall Street would have made it out of the Republican majority Congress?
Why would new laws be needed? Fraud was on the books back in '99. The Clinton Justice Department and SEC didn't need Congressional approval to enforce the current laws.
Who cares about a bozo like Glassman? Nice try at conjuring up a strawman.
Does that include the number of discourged workers who aren't even counted in the "benefit rolls", because their benefits have run out? No.
That's why BLS measures unemployment not just by the household survey, which is what you are referring to, but also by tyhe payroll survey. Learn all about it here Employment Situation Summary
Note both of these may actually overestimate unemployment because they don't account for workers payed underthe table in cash.
The reason for the recesion is clear. Clinton/Gore kept pumping and pumping the bubble. Where were they when Enron / Worldcom / Wall Street were up to their shenanigans? That's right hitting, up the ChiComs for campaign donations and hitting up interns for BJ's.
We will never forget Gore claiming that Bush was "talking down the economy" in 2000. Everyone in the world except to D's realized the mess they had gotten us in.
Half right. ASCAP does go after bars for the above issue. However the point about "enforce it" or "lose it" is wrong. You are correct about it applying to trademarks.
The low prices of Walmart represents deflation. Deflation is bad because it can defer purchasing of products.
and
I see many people who obviously are not hurting for money shopping at Walmart. The reason the do so is because they can have more stuff.
You argue that low prices at Walmart cause us to buy too little and too much.
Lower prices as a result of cutting out the friction of commerce are good. What Walmart has done to bring efficienty to trade by eliminating waste and redundancies makes every dollar I earn worth more. That is good. I can buy more things and less overhead with my paycheck. Stuff makes me happy. I like being able to afford 3 new movies to watch instead of 2, 12 pairs of underware instead of 6, more towels etc. If you're offended that things CAN facilitate happiness then that's your problem. Stop being a puritan.
LG drives are standard on about 1/3 of the Dells out there. If Mandrake doesn't test a large variety of the most common configurations, then they really don't deserve anyone's money as they are rather amateurish.

Slashdot Mirror
Oh wow the soil has 36% carbon instead of 35%.
or
Neeto, there was water here 50 million years ago.
Big woop.
And go drink some eggnogg and be merry.
I suppose you think they've got technicians on Mars to fix the piece of junk.
It doesn't work. It can't be fixed. It's a failure.
It was crap.
That was another flop of his, along with the 'Blazers.
You mean lower prices?
That's the definition of competition.
Blah blah blah Microsoft sucks blah blah blah DRM.
How is the parent insightful?
I agree. The ragheads and junglebunnies just aren't bright enough to pull something like this off. But we do have to watch out for the gooks.

That would suggest, like the lack of consideration, that the GPL isn't enforceable, not that it isn't a contract.
"IANAL. I am a paralegal,"
No wonder. A license IS a contract.
Alternatively tell them your an economist.

and FYI
Bush's approval rating is at 61%
And some Democrats (Dean, Kucinich) do have an agenda
We know what it is.
1. Raise taxes.
2. Surreder to Hussein.
Good luck with that platform.

Red Hat does an end run around the GPL forcing customers to buy a support contract
What does "forcing" mean in your world?
...if they were a girl...I'd probably stop worrying around 13 or 14 or so.
Instant message me when you have teenage daughters please.
