I quit ...

At least on this issue, since I have no real interest in the subject or in debating it. I am quite happy with how I run my life in this regard and you are all free to do what you want also. I have only come across an issue when trying to rip bought CDs a few times (old PCs can be useful!) so mainly it doesn't bother me. I don't play computer games or watch a great deal of films or use torrents. The vast majority of my music collection has been bought with a few exceptions obtained when I was less well off - I plead forgiveness for these Oh Great RIAA in the sky! I have read some of the IP stuff reasoning before but it doesn't persuade me I'm afraid.
