As the RIAA and similar groups are discovering, the only thing that
keeps that Nirvana functioning is the anti-circumvention clause of the
DMCA.

Also, remember that most Joe Randoms aren't BSD or Linux, and that
many Joe Randoms (myself included) would object *strenuously* if an ISP
said "you must install/run *this* software".  That's what got Microsoft
in trouble, you remember?
