Except, is that chart of how many projects use each license, or how much much use software with those licenses sees? Those could be very different. But ups for commenting on the substance rather than the style.

I very nearly hit that point taking Differential Equations my last semester, but thanks to persistence and a very helpful prof, I got over it. Not sure where I'd have ended up if I kept going, but I've always regretted not taking more abstract/"modern" algebra

Hi, could we try debating the content rather than the title?

The sentence in question, "Recorded music is nothing but marketing material to drive awareness of an artist," as spoken by Arrington, is pretty sad. The author has a good point. As a sometime musician, it makes me very sad.

But this sort of devaluation attitude toward music is well known about already. Ironically, it is usually blamed on those dang kids and their crazy Internet making it easy to download lots of recorded music without paying anything for it.

Ironically though, I think it's more the fault of the music business, who for decades have treated music as nothing but marketing material to drive sales of flat round pieces of plastic.
