  1. Re:But what if someone steals your work? on Amazon Gets Patent on Consumer Reviews · · Score: 1

    but can 10000 people afford it? maybe by itself yes, but what about the other items they download? few mp3's here, few ebooks there, a simple 5 dollars turns into 50, then 500, and so on depending upon how much a person wants. not everyone has the luxury of driving suvs, and many are living paycheck to paycheck, some with more bills than microsoft has patents. the biggest thing i find with piracy is that many people wouldnt pay for it, as they cannot afford to, yet if what they read/listen to/watch is good, the IP holder gains a fan who may and most likely probably will pay for future works. if i printed out with a fancy super duper machine that could make me a porsche, that isnt a lost sale, as i dont have the spare 200k cash.
