Simply said, there is only so much to do. I consider going to
extreme lengths to try and prevent the transfer of this or that is a
waste of time and resources.
There are better ways to trade warez. Any moron who wants to go
to such lengths to send ~680MBs of Quake3, um, so be it. It escapes
logic. Kind of like the way the Rio is no more a way to facilitate
piracy than a Zip disk is.

I find that people are going out of their way to attack Napster,
which I do not exactly understand. Napster is going out of their way to
provide a viable resource to the music community yet everybody is lining
up to find a way to dick them over. Perhaps they just want to get their
hand in the pot, so to speak. Given, the RIAA is ready to attack
anybody on a whim, as are these other organizations. They are scared
that their days are numbered. I hope to God that they are. The record
labels have had their day, and it is about time that it ends. The
digital revolution is at hand.

Excuse my rant, I may have gotten a bit off topic.
