Direct quote from this thread from over a year ago:
Is there any point at all to copyright violation threads? The same things are said, over and over and over, and people don't change their minds. The worldviews don't overlap enough to permit significant conversation. Even when conversation stays polite, it's pretty much mired at the "I don't understand how anyone can think that" level. |

Seriously: Yes, we keep
again and again... because we just know there's a live cell or two in there somewhere, and we keep hoping and praying someday it will actually twitch.
I do honestly believe, as do others here, that the problem is not insurmountable. I've also come to realize that larger forces than us are likely to decide this issue one way or the other. I suppose we discuss these things only in the hope that, when the issue is finally decided, one of us will be the one who can say "I told you so."
