Dove, a criminal copyright case, ruling that each illegal download does not necessarily equate to a lost sale, and that the companies affected by P2P piracy cannot make their restitution claims based on this assumption.

    Too many of us suffer from a condition that is going to leave our grandchildren bereft. I call it personal digital disorder.
