[Rwp] Dynamic EQ Anyone?

Sun Dec 27 20:19:08 EST 2015

Sccott,  yep, I know what you mean.  I would say though that the "extra 
step" is designed to help deal with the fact that the notion of freeby has a 
special appeal in a low income communitylike ours.   So, if you can define 
it as freeby, just by stealing it, or sharing it, then why not? I have come 
to think that Blind people have an overwhelming  tendency to have socialist 
values, which leads to stealing, sharing etc etc.  There are several 
understandable reasons for that.  But, that's the way it is.  So, if you 
really do want to protect your profits, you have to take an extra step like 
that.  But anyway,  it's an old, tired discussion.  So hey.
<grin>  Some day, I should do the actual experiment,  sell something 
withabsolutely zero copy protection, and see how many I sell.
I'll try that some time.
