> So he responded to an actual argument with an appeal to emotions? And he seems to be proud of this? Not only that; his question is flawed and ironically very dishonest. Anyone who produces music, movies, games or books knows from the beginning they will be downloaded for free whether the author allows it or not. He will not unexpectedly find himself in that situation as the article implies. With that in mind, anyone who wish to product music etc. has to reconcile themselves with this fact, and find a business model that works in the real world, not some idealized result of wishful thinking. Anything else would be madness. Therefore, the answer to the question should be "AWESOME! Everyone downloaded it." Your worst nightmare should be that no one finds it worth pirating.
