No, it doesn't work that way. If you assert a point, it's your responsiblity
to offer up some evidence. Otherwise it's just a passing thought and will be
treated as such.

I'm no expert on statistics, but I believe a poll here would make a poor
sampling. The more tech-savy types take the time to follow these groups so
the poll would be skewed toward them.

Just like another discussion in this group, different laws come into play
depending on where you are. Where I live, borrowing music and making a copy
for your own personal use is perfectly legal.

I agree with this point. I dislike those who pounce on someone posting a
question because they assume the poster is doing something illegal.
Sometimes the pouncer is wrong, and of course they just slink away rather
than doing the honourable thing and apologising. Of course, the honourable
thing would be to get the facts straight first, but that seems to be too
much of a stretch.
