TechDirt: BSA Looks Stupid (Again)
Mike at TechDirt has it out for the Business Software Alliance. He claims (as does IDC) that the Alliance is misrepresenting a study it paid IDC to write. Bottom line: The BSA argues that every box of illegally purchased software would have been paid for, so by cracking down, the BSA is stimulating the economy. Mike argues (successfully for me anyway) that by using the software companies are saving money and thus perhaps hiring more people! He simply wants BSA to look at both sides of the story.
