More from the Guinea Pigs

More from the Guinea Pigs – Last week I pointed you to the words of Ben and Frank (“Guinea Pigs in a Doomed Experiment”), and there’s since been some interesting commentary. Doctor Frank has some brief responses to a few of the more prevalent counterarguments, and Ben takes it a step or two further.

“I even read a particularly obtuse comment on a message board to the effect of ‘How can you steal what doesnt exist?’ To which one might answer, ‘If it doesnt exist, what the hell are you listening to?&’ or, for the less patient, ‘When you feel my foot up your butt, just tell yourself it doesnt exist.’ True, copyright infringement is only a type of theft. Then those stealing music are only a specific type of thief. Okay then. Everybody happy?”
