Come on these RIAA idiots wont win, for that they have to get people to do what they want, even with a ruling that won't happen.

Think about Moores Law, that means tech has to double every 18 months, and without media what for?! Without copious media like Music, DVD's, TV programmes and home video why would I need more that my 3GHz CPU, my 200GB HDD, Firewire, Windows XP, 1GB RAM, DVD/RW, SUrround sound speakers -- it's all driven by media.

At £14.99 a CD, I'd have to say that the whole of the PC industry would come to a hault, yea really!!! I don't pay that, I'm not a mug and why should some BNaire get a better life than me, what is money anyway.

Without vast siolos of media collected by users, who needs a TB HDD, well then why are companies working toward it?! its so obvious!!!!
