Do you rip CDs? Then you're a thief according to Sony BMG!

The fight against piracy is becoming really absurd. On a news published at Ars Technica, is reported a rather shocking reply of Jennifer Pariser, the head of litigation for Sony BMG:

"When an individual makes a copy of a song for himself, I suppose we can say he stole a song." Making "a copy" of a purchased song is just "a nice way of saying 'steals just one copy'," she said.

Based on this reasoning, every person with an iPod or any similar portable player ripping legally purchased CDs to listen music is a thief. I wonder if this disgusting series of insults will ever end...
