Boy, Morton, aren't you nasty today. And for not even knowing what you're
talking about either.

First, the Zero Files Hack prevents anyone from automatically uploading even
when the person has files they claim to be sharing, and no one else is
uploading at all. They're not sharing, just teasing.

Second, everyone who owns even one CD has files to share since they can rip
that CD to their share directory with free software and offer it in return
for what they're seeking for themselves. That makes everyone richer.

If it were in my control, intentional lechers wouldn't be part of the
network That would hardly make it worthless. Some people might even
consider that a benefit.
