Some "music creators" don't focus enough on their toolset and create well written melodies that sound like crap on a recording. And there's everyone in between. What are you saying? That the majority of today's musicians aren't writing music and just fiddling with equipment? Where are you seeing (hearing) this?
I prefer the old Leisure Suit Larry system where you have to take a quiz to prove that you are an adult before you can play the game (or you have to know that ctrl+alt+x skips it).
I suppose now you would Google the answers to all the questions. Crap.
5) kill every living thing at Verisign/Network Solutions even remotely involved with this bullshit (as an example to others who have not learned to participate in a civilized society.)
When there are computers beeping, phones ringing, and people yelling it's very hard to focus on your phone sex--- errr.. important business call. Yes. Ahem.
The RIAA has the same problem as you. They think of downloading songs as the equivalent of stealing cars. Apples and oranges. File sharing can be made to work for the record industry. There is no way to make auto theft profitable for the auto industry. If the record industry is willing to make some heavy changes to their business model they will survive.
It'll be sweet when these things marked down to almost nothing and you need a new toy/tool. There's also sorts of things you could use it for.
Maybe you could give them away at a trade show with it showing a little info video about your new product which the customer could walk while walking around. If they don't bring it back, who cares??
You could plant several of them around the city/campus and make some sort of mission-impossible scavenger hunt for your pal.
Whenever there's "cool hacked thing" story posted someone always asks the "what's the point" question. To you ask "where's your creativity?"
Hmm... don't know, but I did find this link posted in another thread: RIAA Radar. It allows you to figure out what CDs are "RIAA Safe". That's a good starting point.

Oh man. I have to go to the bathroom now. (For an unrelated reason)

Unless it's "Battlefield Earth." In that case just run.

This is how a true geek thinks of himself.
They sued one of their own artists? The man's been dead for years! Those RIAA bastards are ruthless!

I'm going to continue buying music from independent/small label musicians (and continue writing my own).
I'm going to continue listening/donating to commercial free internet radio stations.
And I'll read too.
The geeks are excited...

Geek orgasm!
Well, was referring to Atari... ah, nevermind. I'll refrain from posting before coffee.
Welcome to America!
If by "stuff" you mean things bought for 25 cents from vending machines when you exit the super market, then yes.
(and also way too expensive for any of us to buy yet quite fun to ogle at?)
Rather near somewhere else actually...
Yeah, but his antics as Mahoney are hilarious! I love all the pranks he plays on Lt. Harris!
Proctor!!
Just use the Text Zoom under the view menu! Too bad the font sucks. I tried changing it, but it doesn't work. Didn't they use style sheets?
