That's as may be, Maggy. Truth be told, people don't see the taking of a few albums from the majors as a big deal. They just don't see the big picture.
Widespread education campaigns (instead of patronising knock off Nigel ads) look good on paper, but it's never going to work. You can't make people pay for something they know they can get for less, or free. It's a nice ideal, but never going to happen. Something must be done to attempt to stem it to appease those losing out however - so here it is.
