Isn't this malicious code? A virus? It's even more crippling than any current Mac viruses. I'm surprised that Microsoft isn't trying to patent this technology already. It could potentially target a better demographic than any email ever could. Imagine being able to disable the computers of all Kenny G, Yanni, Celine Dion or Enya fans. It actually doesn't sound so bad! The musicians are going to be the ones that get hurt in the end for even participating with this. Their incompetent fans will struggle to fix their $2000 computer and will hold it against them. This is going to get completely smacked down in court. There are already laws protecting us against this kind of thing. They prosecuted the guy who wrote the Melissa virus... so they can do the same for anyone who knowingly harms your desktop. Plus it even encroaches on fair use laws. Might want to buy your Star Wars Episode 2 soundrtrack now. It will be a huge collector's item... Just like that stupid Milli Vanilli disc.
