   Indeed. If you don't like the music industries tactics, you   
   shouldn't buy their products. If enough people do this, they will be   
   forced to reconsider.   
      
   Is there any SF which deals with the issue of copying, copyright laws,   
   and related issues? I guess the most obvious example is Cory Doctorow's   
   _Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom_, where it's part of the backstory.
