You're trotting out the "injustice of copyright" argument (yeah, I think it's messed up too) as though it's a justification for what was at the time the commercially enabled piracy of recently released albums.
My view on the world is only an epsilon away from yours. I'm not in the "home taping is killing the movie industry crowd". I release "free as in freedom" software by default.
But from my point of view, the epsilon is that a lot of people in the software industry do rely on and understand the value and importance of IP as a work product yet insist that others should be ok with a company profiting off the illegal distribution of music.
Anyway, while we are having a way old discussion all over again, thanks for your sincere replies.
