Many people on this list care about intellectual property in music and art for several reasons. First, because it's just morally right not to rip-off other people's work and tout it as your own. And, second, the (oftentimes small) earnings we make from our work, sustains artforms and musical genres that, all too often, don't get much support. Why is a Web page author any different from a novelist or a musician if what he/she creates is wholly individual?

Perhaps you'd prefer "girls in idm." There *are* women lurking here, y'know. Easy, Marie www.floatingcode.com
