Comment Re:EVs are a second-car choice that costs a lot. (Score 1) 490

You're missing the point. The Volt is a MUCH better car to drive than the Cruze, its not even in the same league or class! It drives and responds like a Caddy with tons of acceleration and has most of the highend luxury features of one. Extremely quiet cabin too. Put your Cruze at $35,000 if you want something even remotely equivilant in luxury factor. Are you expecting to buy the Volt and it be barebones and bland like a Cruze? Seriously now.

Theres way too much out of print stuff that you cannot find legally unless you're lucky enough to track it down used....
I would say at least HALF of the original NES library of games are like this as a quick example....
And for arcade game PCB's, then that number is off the charts....
Most of our past culture would be inaccessible if it weren't for the internet.

Furthermore, what annoys me is they let it go on for 7 whole years while all the industry did was whine about them, before finally getting the FBI to take action.
They had more than enough US presense for a successful civil case, and of course disobeying a court order will be criminal contempt of court. Only then should the FBI get involved.
Suddenly being held liable for hundreds of millions in damages would make them rethink thier flawed DMCA policies.
