You just hope your product is good enough for other people to want to buy.

Um, so you're putting the onus on the creator to make a product that people will choose not to steal, and not the thief that unlawfully takes property that is not theirs? A creator and owner of property needs to rely on the good nature and approval of the thief to expect a return for providing a product or service? I'm all for competition, but competing with your own free product is absurd on every level.

BTW Earl, this is not aimed specifically at you, this a a universal comment, so please don't take offense as I don't think you mean any harm. I'm going to be letting my friend know my thoughts on this as well. Even though he's spending probably $100 a week in books, it's still not right to steal what you don't buy.

If this is the moral paradigm that the internet is teaching us, I am for creating restrictions on it's use. All "sharing" and torrent sites should be made shut down immediately or esle our artist and creators ill cease to create. We're submarining our own cultural development so we can save a buck.
