If I'm free to buy the unbranded shirt at 2 USD, it's my money. Nothing bad with buying the 20 USD piece, I'm happy for its maker. What is really wrong is: the fact that the copyright was extended by Disney's lobbying so they can continue forever to "own" Mickey Mouse generations afters Walt and the other co-creators are gone. buying illegally made Mickey Mouse shirts, again as long as you have the choice. See my suggestions about music. 100% agree about drugs and foods, as already stated. > Also in the information age the indivisibility of binary data (software > and media) should really dictate what a fair price to pay is.
