Actually the bit that really irritates me (here in Aus anyway) is if you are at Uni doing Tax/Accounting/Law all the legislations are available online from the relevant agencies for free, but Uni's wont allow electronic devices in exams, so you are forced to spend $100+ on a printed copy of each piece of legislation/standards you need for each class (something which is outdated come next calendar/financial year). These are thick, heavy and expensive.
So.....what can we do? Revolt? I'm afraid it is something to put up with.
