Excuse me but you show me one "Academic Institution" doing research that doesn't have "Corporate interests"? I work for one of the largest faith based Universities in the nation, and the success of failure of a number of our programs relies on our "Corporate relationships"....
I Have to agree the coupon program was a bust. Where I live (Semi urban area) all of the stores were out of boxes when I got my coupons.... I Was unable to buy one before they expired. I contacted the FCC office that handles the coupons and told them about it and they said they would resend some. Now I'm on a waiting list because they ran out of funds.
Ya if the road in BFE Actually goes somewhere from somewhere. now if you build a 1 mile stretch of 6 lane in the middle of nowhere and it doesn't connect to anything then no.... Just like if you hung a piece of OC 48 trunk line on the wall in your office and marveled at how fast it was (it wouldn't get traffic) if you give people a faster more reliable way to get where they are going, They will. it they get there faster and have time left over they may go some where else, and some where else, etc......
"The next person may say that it is wrong to limit a person's access to art and culture based on their economic position."
The problem it this is not based on what the next person might say.... It's not based on what the "People" want... It's based on what Corporations in their infinite wisdom believe is most profitable!
and also "Illegal vs Legal != to Wrong vs Right"
More like "Illegal vs Legal != to Loss vs Profit"
And the biggest thing that burns me is that this argument is not about Theft! (Piracy in is true form is wrong!) It is about protecting ones rights as in being able to backup the $2500 copy of CS3 you just bought or using a copy of the CDs from the $100 box set you just bought in your car so the originals don't get trashed or stolen. Or using copies of the Veggie tales DVDs you payed $20 bucks at wall-mart for in you kids room so the don't get covered with grape jelly. But th law says this is wrong to protect your investment... Never mind what it says about outright theft.
