If your car were made of information rather than matter, I'd say yes.
Shipping cost, CD printing, manual all cost money - it's not information only.

Downloading software involves no shippping cost or manual costs.

Maybe you ought to check what you were talking about before, and then make a post. Downloading has nothing to do with this, it's about losing a CD and getting another one from Shrapnel.

You have taken my quote out of context then accused me of talking about something else.

My statement about cars not being comparable to software was in response to a discussion about the morality of downloading a copy of SEIV if the original disk broke.

Erm... screwing the girlfriend is still quite involving the girlfriend and no SE. There might be some beer involved though.

Thanks for the reply Imperator Fyron. I will make a back up to avoid losing it all.
