And when the average angry hacker can't shell out the thousands for the logic analyzers, you can bet that the chinese large scale piracy workshops will.:)
I don't know what record company you work for, but whatever it is I guess you have access to all the independent research that goes against your claims. If you would actually read some of it, you would see that there are plenty of explanations why filesharing does not affect music sales. No one is saying that there hasn't been a decrease in CD sales.
If you would read your PR agents post before you posted it on slashdot, you would also notice that the studies that showed that smoking doesn't give you lung cancer was sponsored by the producer of said product. They were of course wrong, as a lot of independent studies shown. In this case, the studies that shows that filesharing is hurting music sales are also sponsored by the producer of the product, and independent studies shows that they are lying. Hopefully, in 50 years from now we will see who was right, and I doubt that it is RIAA, much as is was not the tobacco companies that were right.
I download a shitload of music and movies. Yet, I buy the music I want. The availability of filesharing has not affected the amount I spend on culture each month. If I bought everything I download, I would probably have to pay some $2000/month.
When you say Everytime a new study come yet the results differs., take a look at the sources. All independent research has always shown that filesharing has not and does not affect record sales. All information that comes from the record companies says that they do. Who do you trust?
The bad news is that we have no idea how long people have known about this problem...
But in a closed development model we would have some magic insight in how long people have known about a flaw? I'm sorry, but I fail to see the drawbacks in this case.
But in this case, our McDonalds example are happily serving people with a t-shirt saying "stupid fucking whites", while the guy saying "stupid fucking nigger" is kicked out. The fictional bus company doesn't care shit if there are people who are violent to christians, but kicks you out if you are violent to muslims.
Here in Finland [...] freezing it more during the night and letting it warm during the day. You mean heat it more during the night and heat it less during the day? Glad I could help.
It's a bit like the same reason someone spends $1000/foot for an audio cable and honestly believes it sounds superior. Self-delusion. Taking care of the environment would need the republican to perhaps get a smaller car (which means a smaller penis), or even share the car with another person, aka "bus". He would also have to pay more for his energy, and waste disposal. These are not very fun things to do if you value money a lot, thus, in order to protect themselves, the brain actually makes you believe what's best for you to be the right thing.
It's not their job to make sure the city will extend the infrastructure. They are only there to find out the facts. Too bad the fact is ignored by the people who are actually there to do something about it.
Sure, it will "correct" itself. The problem in this case is that the cure might not be very fun for us living on it at the moment, or in the future as well.
I fail to see the logic in this "boohoo, China and India doesn't have to limit their exhaust as much as we do, so let's not join!".
I thought that the United States of America was superior to those lesser regimes, and was supposed to treat its inhabitants better? Whatever happened to that?
Did you actually read the part that you quoted, or did you just copy something out of random? Here, I'll read it for you and I will also translate it into something that may be a bit less difficult to understand:
he never sent copyrighted music to others
This doesn't mean he didn't download the music, just that he never shared it.
the music was legal because it was someone else's
The music that he downloaded (that he does not deny that he downloaded) was free for him to copy, since a close family member already bought it.
The good thing is that it doesn't matter! Tomorrow you'll be something else! As long as there is some vague enemy that can't really be defeated, everyone is happy.
One biggy is that with MS Terminal server there is no saving on licensing (i.e just because you are running terminal server doesn't automatically mean that you could move to a concurrent licensing model) Plus to make it work really well you need to invest in third party products to suppliment Microsoft Terminal server.
You could also move to an operating system built from the ground with this kind of usage in mind, for example Linux. Then you can stop worry about licensing too.
Putting a different name with some plausible responsibilities (BSA, BS agency?) and legal power, dissociated from Microsoft, would probably help improve PR.
This is what the record companies does with RIAA. RIAA doesn't need to "be nice" to us to keep their customers, because we are not their customers. They can threaten us, bully the government, pretend to be some government agency etc. They want us to fear them, in the same way as BSA.

Do you have any sources for this or did you write it because you think so?

So it should be no one's damned business if for example McDonalds only served christians, and the bus company had a special section for black people?
I wish you were correct: http://www.pcworld.com/article/id,109808-page,1/ar ticle.html
All of those apps are something you would expect to run if you were a website developer.

There's also something called "setting a good example". Why should China and India join if the US is not included?

(assuming you're from the US) Because you live in a democracy where, in theory, the population chose their government.

That's not a good solution. The only long term solution is to stop breeding like you're a frikkin sha^Wbunny.
(not "you" as in you, but you know, in general. *sigh* Engrish is a great language.)
That sounds very anti-american. May I see you Freedom License please?

So RMS would be our Jesus, judging from the appearance?

This should be Score: 2, Sad, not funny. :/
This seem to be exactly what most legislators secretly wish.
