My guess (not being one of these people) would be that having this philosophy wouldn't help the situation- cz these people would be objecting to the existence of the file-sharing networks from whence your MP3z which you are listening to and deleting would have come from. Enforcing a kind of policy like yours with software is impossible (If you can hear it, you can record it ;p). Oh, and it would be gay, hehe. LONG LIVE, UMM, EMINEM! IMO not keeping the tracks would just be, err, a waste. ;> And from my personal perspective I cannot afford to buy most CDs I want, living where I do. People in India can afford less. And so on.. :P I don't think filesharing can be stopped; so I think the anti-MP3 crowd had better just adapt. ;> Or start helping the RIAA and co. to comm and ketch us all *yEEE*.
