[MPlayer-users] Illegal binaries...

But then an again, a binary is just ONE NUMBER. Large number, yes, but still
a natural number. Question is, how large numbers can be protected by
copyright? Say, I copyright 0, and Arpi copyrigths 1, and then on, no binary
could be released without our permission because every binary consists of
just our binaries in various order. ;)

Maybe there should be a trial, where one should blame one another for
violating copyright, the another would say he/she just wrote down one
natural number. That would make up a precedence and from then on, no binary
could be protected by copyright, or, on if the judge decides to protect a
natural number by copyright, well... who knows?:)
Number-brokers;)))

It has not been properly thought over.
