OK, this is a scary thing. This would effectively allow software vendors to attach copyright infringement penalties to EULA violations. Nevermind if you bought it legally. If you do something that violates the EULA, you have infringed their copyright.
You get to burn in hell with actors, strippers, whores and professional athletes.

Not quite. Judges often consider reasonableness, public interest and the relative sophistication of both parties. When one party is a company with a legal team and the other party is Joe Consumer judges often lean towards protecting the little guy when the deal is an un-negotiated take-it-or-leave it one.
Except in this case. This ruling by judges is in direct opposition to protecting the little guy. They have ruled that an EULA is enforceable on someone that never even agreed to the EULA.

I believe you mean "removing your nose TO SPITE your face..."
As opposed to the plethora of other issues with that post?

* To clarify, some T-Mobile stores seem to be going down in the quality of their reps. The last time I was in a T-Mobile store looking for a new headset for my wife, I had to explain to the rep that the headset he handed me had the wrong size connector. However, some T-Mobile stores are run by dealers and not the company. A couple years ago, I was thoroughly impressed by the competence of the reps at a particular store. I found out it was a corporate store. I would have gone there, but it was much farther away and we happened to be across the street from this other one. Every time I've dealt with a T-Mobile direct employee, I've had VERY good service.
We tech people know there are viable alternatives, but the general public don't. Hence there is a valid question to be asked if the "mainstream" marketed software would do well to have affordable alternatives. How many people would buy a legal copy of Office if the new version of Word, Excel, and Power Point could be bought for a reasonable price? (Historically, this was not the case, but MS did release a 3 license pack of Office 2007 that was only Word, Excel, and Power Point for home users priced sub $200.) Software Piracy could likely dramatically drop if the "household name" products were priced at better price points.
Is it scary that this actually sounds possible?
