What about them?  

A person who refuses to buy DVDs on principle should have no problem with
either of those.  For instance, I don't buy software at all.  Also, in the
last two years I've aquired four CDs.  Two years ago I bought one used,
I've received two as gifts, and I bought one at the show directly from the
group.  I think that a willingness to give up any one of these three
things on account of industry politics implies a willingness to give up
the other two.  Anything less would be hypocritical.

I will buy movies and music again when I am not encumbered to do only
those things that the intellectual property owners want me to do.  When I
obey the law, it will be because I choose to, not because I am forced to.
