Re: Think About It

Another way of thinking about "outdated" or older software...

I am a music teacher by profession, but on occassion write music. 
Legally, when I place a copyright on my music, I own it for a set period 
of time.

Some of the music I write I might choose to sell, and I may even spend 
some money to advertise it through different channels. There may come a 
point, however, where I might choose to withdraw sales due to the low 
volume of sales, or any other reason that I desire.

Even though I pull it from sales, it is STILL my property. If you want a 
copy of the piece, you do NOT have the right to photocopy someone else's 
copy, just because you can't buy a copy of it yourself. I spent the time 
writing it, so it is mine, and I should (and do) have all rights in 
deciding who should be able to attain it.
