Something that really needs to be taken up through the appropriate channels. Downloading pirate copies to voice one's disapproval is only more ammunition to the copyright holders stance (be it real or not).

Paul, in post #223 you mentioned that the public has no moral right to the work. Now in post #243, you are willing to limit that to within the parameters of the copyright law.
The problem with post #223 is that I implied "within the constraints of the law" rather than saying it. To which your next reply should be to remind me that morality and law are two rather separate things.

My best move is to replace the word "moral" to "legal" in post #223.

Paul.
