Stealing Rainbows

You have just got to love the human race haven't you?

A study has claimed that more people illegally downloaded Radiohead's 'In Rainbows' album rather than take it from the band's website - where it was available for free!!!

Radiohead have refused to reveal how much money was made from their "honesty box" experiment, which gave downloaders the choice of how much they paid - including nothing. But P2P monitor Big Champagne says 2.3 million people chose to get the album via BitTorrent sites instead!

Makes me wonder, if Apple suddenly started giving away iPods for free, would there still be thugs out there mugging others for their music players?
