Your comments, please: there is a lot of furor on the 'Net these days about the MPAA and the copyright act, and the music industry's efforts to shut down digital piracy. Just a question, but is this or is this not the essential argument: I want to steal people's music and the people who wrote and published the music shouldn't stop me just because they "own" it.

Hey, I'm all for sharing, and I've Gnutella'd with the best of 'em. But come on, man, why can't artists be allowed to make a buck?

I welcome your responses...
