The most important poll...
...from the Jalnor Department of Questions That Result From Excessive Interest. Important note: I'm going to keep linking to this (and there'll be no new journal) until there are a thousand votes. Just FYI. Piracy. Many governments think it's a huge problem. Films, television, music and software companies all shout about it a lot. But how much of a problem is it really?

What I do care about is why they do it. So here's my poll... If more than one option is true for you, choose the one that is most true for you.

(Regardless of the result, our argument will be correct - just different. We've already worked out all the variables and there's no This is a rare one for me, in that it doesn't contain a silly option for abstaining, like a random Caboose quote. So pick one. Edit: Invite your friends! I want the largest sample I can get on this poll! Votes at last count: 66. I only need another 934 - but at least the numbers are starting to shift!
