David,
  You might think of the fun this creates for libraries (or those libraries
that have software that they will allow patrons to borrow).  I don't advocate
piracy myself (I work for a developer and THAT pays my bills every two weeks).
 However, libraries are caught in the middle of this debate right now.  If the
bill passes, a good many libraries are going to have one humongeous problem on
their hand!  (Since I'm a full-fledged MLS holder, I don't want to see this
happen either, ESPECIALLY when it comes down to intellectual freedom issues, a
can of worms that I as an overworked technician/librarian don't want to get
into at this time.)
