You're not supposed to say things like that here, it stifles discussion.

Yes it's very similar to what we have now, which is why I believe it will work.

Here's something to listen to,

I enjoy discussing ideas with others but am perfectly capable of discussing them with myself if need be.

To share or not to share, that is the question:

The slings and arrows of outrageous copyprotections,
Or to take arms against a sea of publishers,
And by opposing end them? To read: to think;
