I have a moral conflict with animal products. Hell I have a moral conflict with eating – animals or otherwise – but that’s a bit of a tangent.
On one hand, I think “Well, if we weren’t eating them and their by-products , just what would be the use of having cows, pigs and chickens around?”

Well I think we all know why they suck, but anyway…
I was gonna upload a video to YouTube, and naturally my video just so happened to have some non-permission-granted copyrighted material in it. You can’t use a SONG in your video…even if you give credit, no pictures of anybody, even if you give credit, without [...]

The original title was a bit misleading. I didn’t mean the Internet should actually be free. I mean that the Internet is not a place for excessive advertising. It isn’t the classifieds in a newspaper.
Ok I guess some clarification is in order (ie “you’re an idiot” down in the comments):
