Of course following your last string of logic, this is fine as long as other's listening to my music doesn't disrupt my capability to listen as well.

Their using my wireless doesn't cost me anything. It's more like them enjoying the music I'm playing on my stereo. If more than one person is listening it doesn't degrade my experience. I have all sorts of excess capacity on my access point. I'm sure I would feel differently if I lived in an apartment and many neighbors were trying to use it. That could potentially degrade my performance.Kevin Gamblehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00659162207319457717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4323202250325013491.post-44070213819596086952007-05-25T20:46:00.000-05:002007-05-25T20:46:00.000-05:002007-05-25T20:46:00.000-05:00Hmmm, I wonder if that argument would work for wat...Hmmm, I wonder if that argument would work for water and electricity too... :)floydhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17156283813289858571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4323202250325013491.post-5581079168006167862007-05-24T07:36:00.000-05:002007-05-24T07:36:00.000-05:002007-05-24T07:36:00.000-05:00Ahh, good point.
