<DIV>Simply put the argument "I saw it online and decided to buy it" doesn't
wash, that is saying that the end justifies the means, and you don't wanna go
there . . . . . </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Sergio and Mark have worked hard enough over the years producing Groo among
other things, and Mark still hasn't been paid, what's more the USDollar is
falling against the Kopin so it looks unlikely he will ever be. So you think he
wants to see it on the net for free ! Like rubbing salt into the wound man
!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Seriously - It's dead simple, Groo (like all other published owned
material) says at the start of the comic/book something like "<EM>the
reproduction of this material in <STRONG>any way</STRONG> is prohibited</EM>".
<STRONG>That's it, end of story, case closed, no arguments - don't do
it</STRONG> !</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Nuf Zed !</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I support Sergio, Mark, Tom, Stan etc on this all the way -
<STRONG>Buy it - don't pirate it</STRONG> !</DIV>
<DIV>GC (Groo Crusader)</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I hope Mark and Sergio can convince these pirates to shut down.</DIV>

<DIV>My two cents on the pdf sharing:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> I get the distinct impression that the ranks of "I saw it first
through a file share and now I buy every (CD, Comic book, DVD, novel) by that
person" are far outnumbered by the ranks of "If I can get it by file sharing,
why the heck should I shell out actual cash for it?". </DIV>
