Two things, first, isn't taking someone's A and saying "Wow, this is really cool! Read it!" more like what we do with open source? It's just if someone claims to have written it, THEN it's wrong.
Second, the RIAA keeps whining about cd-r's ruining their business. But, since they get a royalty off every cdr sold, doesn't that suggest that not only are they profiting off purchases of cdr's ( regardless of whether or not people are "stealing" with them or not) but they have accepted payment for the right to burn cd's? Does this mean that they have given up their right to bitch and whine and go after people? "Hey, don't bother me, I paid the cdr tax."
