    Money is no object when purchasing genuine Apple equipment. The price
    charged means nothing when buying this level of Chinese slave-manufactured
    quality and pseudo-multitasking technology.

    I told him to eBay it, but I think he's not even interested enough to
    do that.

    Did you notice that the date mentioned was 1930? For the last ??? years
    copyright has been good for 50 years or the life of the author/creator,
    whichever is greater!

    Actually that changed quite a few years ago. It is now 95 years from
    publication or 120 years from creation whichever is shorter (anonymous
    works, pseudonymous works, or works made for hire, published since 1978)

    95 years from publication for works published 1964*1977; 28 (if
    copyright not renewed) or 95 years from publication for works published
    1923*1963 (Copyrights prior to 1923 have expired.)
    Life +70, since 1978 (can't remember which this was, but it is
    conceivable that the copyright is still in force).

    And we are talking Disney, so it was not a personal copyright and the
    life of the author is beside the point.

    Considering how aggressive RIAA and MPAA are, what you are advocating is
    guaranteed to get people sued. What astounds me is that you know this,
    and suggest crap like this anyhow.

    But why should you give a ****? Really? Why? It's not you getting in
    trouble, is it?

    Your news is old, Steve! RIAA/MPAA quit prosecuting downloaders a year or
    more ago. They only go after the posters, now, and never on usenet where
    anonymity is tough to crack. They've ALWAYS gone after the easy targets,
    traps set up to trap bit torrent idiots or the companies that do
    connections.

    There hasn't been a user prosecution in over a year, I think. I haven't
    researched it, but you can play on Google is you like.

    The religious guilt trip doesn't play here. I can get the movies free from
    the local library and copy them from there, I suppose. They're all old
    crap, like they sell on TV.

    Someday "they" will put a stop to it. I have enough to keep me entertained
    for decades.

    I sent Glenn Miller an email asking him if he objected to my possessing his
    music. I got no reply, so I guess it's ok.
