This Is
all well and fine. However now everybody who has a lamppost will be holding an MSN lightbulb simply by virtue of an 'upgrade to the 'bulb.

For most of music think all of the 'liscencors should be 'sharing the wealth. Just the same as fact of entropy, - the more places there are to spend your money the less of it there is to go around. And its all liquid. Sure they'll be able to squeeze newbies into the 'grover in the garbage can. But it will not replace the 'wealth involved in 'owning a movable ,tradable,digital file. Playable on any supporting hardware,w/o the accountant 'custodial arrangement maintained through the present user agreements Microsoft 'redeems from each person wishing to participate.

But Microsoft,and Linux is all we have sadly. Nothing else is being considered to fill the vacuum. Since 'renting is parrallel to 'owning , the sceam of Microsoft renting 'liscences is just another forray into ''this is how it is this is how its going to be''.

Well. What else is there ? I mean all that copyright stuff and the mental block put on 'liscensing and 'agreement is a super monopoly for sure. Since previous to these relationships available via 'internet WE OWNED OUR STUFF.

Microsoft among others are not sharing this. As a fundamental fact in our country of right of owning wealth. It is also a fact in trust of present day business that this is not respected. But is as we are candy to the change of the lightbulb. For wich only two possibilities exist.

Somehow WE need to OWN the software.The system,and the 'good involved to these commerces. Since an unrecoverable amount of 'fluid economy rests in a lopsided inequality of ledger,legend,and asset functional to a single aspect of person pertainant to the functionality of the concepts presently shown in computer and computer accesory.

Then again all blues is not bliss.

-just talking.
