Man...is this worth all the struggle? I am in amazement how this market
ever got off the ground...producers are just making life too miserable with
all this greedy copy protection and failsafe hardware. Geeze...hell, we
just want to USE what we buy. I'm only a week into this and I'm already
ready to chuck my equipment and save myself a heart attack from frustration.
