There are plenty of free alternatives.
But maybe buying a product is the real act of civil disobedience here.
After all, the free tools won’t be going away anytime soon, but certain people are trying to do their best to make sure that everyone agrees that home taping is killing music and that such tools should be illegal.
Actually, I’d want one of the companies selling such products to take states to invester-state arbitration courts (as established by various free trade agreements) whenever they run into legal trouble. After all, that’s what those courts are for, isn’t it?
