BSA Releases BS Numbers Yet Again, Then Says Don't Pay Attention To The
Numbers
,----[ Quote ]
| Well, it's the middle of May, and that means (like clockwork) the Business
| Software Alliance (BSA) and IDC have come out with their annual bogus numbers
| about software "piracy." They do this every year, despite the fact that their
| numbers have been totally and completely debunked for years. Last year, they
| were kind enough to call to discuss my concerns, but stood by the idea that
| every unauthorized copy can be reasonably counted as a lost sale.
