By a similar argument, legislated copy protection is not a legitimate problem, it's an unavoidable side-effect of having easy and cheap duplication and transport of content based products. We pretend that this is a new problem but copyright has been around for a long time and if I were to bet on which side will win in the long term, I'd bet on the same side that won last time: the content producers and copyright holders. This saddens me.
