I don't care if net.sources.mac is all binhex files -- hey, the signal/ noise ratio is very high -- but I will blithely take anything I want and not feel the slightest amount of guilt about "ripping off" a shareware developer. Have YOU shared any money you got with the sites that distributed your program?
