I think Trey Ratcliff is onto something here in his article Five Reasons Why I Don't Care if My Stuff is Pirated.  Great ideas and ideals, wish more people would look at piracy the same way they do samples and teasers.  Websites and software figured it out a long time ago, but traditional media has sadly never really caught up to the digital age...

Actually, a new study from AptiQuant shows that on average, those using Internet Explorer 6 as their primary browser tend to have lower IQs than folks using more modern, non-Microsoft browsers like Firefox, Chrome, Opera and Camino.  Go figure.
