What is being planned... Presence of commercial software on physik? I have yet to see one piece of copyright infringement from physik! This is in stark contrast to AB20 which was a hot-bed of copyright infringement! The incoming directory at AB20 occasionally contained pirated commercial software for brief periods of time. Additionally the euro demos and mods often contained samples, musics or code which have been blatantly ripped from commercial programs (usually games). Of course no one seems to worry about this sort of infringement... now if i was to imitate or copy a great piece of art, say a van Gogh... would i be in for a toasting or what? [Insert the odd smiley in this document, however i refrain from these primary school like habits.]
