To funny.
Maybe analogous, maybe not. The number of people who feel that they can bring there own food into a restaurant or pub, use the establishments cutlery, condiments etc, without purchasing so much as a beverage is astounding.
Perhaps the analogy comes in because people feel they are entitled to do what they want and be cheered on for it?
Most strong DRM opponents in this forum, admit to being able to break the DRM. Is the fact that they don't want to break the rule/law etc. the big problem with paying the same price? I can understand that and if indeed they refuse to strip the DRM on moral principals, well good for them.
If they strip the DRM and wail like the Dutch oover the price of coffee, well that might be analogous to me jaywalking (illegal where I live) and standing on a corner wailing because the law made me commit a crime.
