Thanks mom2school. That option hadn't even occurred to me!
Ethics are relative. Social/Interpersonal Ethics, and my ability to share my knowledge and intellectual assets, are very important to me. My Business/Consumer Ethics are nonetheless important, yet a bit diverse. I've spent so much of my life abroad. Only in the States are pirating debates so prevalent. Regardless of the stigma, P2P plays a role in our economy. A thriving business can supply the latest and greatest product as demand for older inventory dwindles.
Maybe ethics would have us buy the textbooks, or take the 16-week classes, rather than use something like IC. Are Universities not businesses as well? Do they not need our patronage to survive? Ethics, hmmm, how much Wal-Mart shopping do you do? How much can one indirectly invest in the Chinese workforce and inversely damage the U.S.'s job market? There's a bunch of gray area. Morally, to me, I've at least got my priorities in line.
I'm gonna hit the library.
Thanks again, mom2school
Thanks to IC as well. What a great service!
