I see all the Anti-Piracy and all the references to "online music thieves", however, the RIAA is a voluntary organization. All the DRM crap that makes CD play on Windows and not on Linux (and installs rootkits on those winboxes, for those who don't know) is put there voluntarily by the distributors. In any case, I have money and I want to trade it for music. They are not willing. However, e/a/x-mule is willing to give me all the music I want, for free. What can I do? If they want to fight piracy, then make the music available LEGALLY! Dotan Cohen http://technology-sleuth.com/technical_answer/why_are_internet_greeting_cards_dangerous.html
