GarArnett, I hope you read this. In the case you mentioned about downloading music, does it make a difference if the accused (the extent of my court phrases) if said person pays an annual fee to a company such a Limewire?

i'm not a lawyer, and i didn't stay at a holiday inn express last night, but i would imagine that it would depend on what the fee you are paying is for. if its for use of their service, then i would say no, it makes no difference.

if you are paying royalty fees, then it would make a difference.

speaking of royalty fees, did you know that you now have to pay a monthly royalty fee on top of your subscription fee for xm/sirius? that blows......

The price is a bargain. I paid $120 for a Ridley Manual. and it's not nearly as detailed as the Harley Manual. The Ridley belongs to my wife.

Thats because Ridley had to settle out of court and pay MOCO for using the name AUTO Glide.

The HD manuals are very reasonably priced.

Is that front end raked? Looks like it. Not a bad looking ride. Not at all familiar with it. Big bucks involved?

Free market society. If you don't want to pay $5, $50, $500 or whatever for a manual, tool, part, etc...then don't pay it. If people are bummed that something costs so much money, go invent something new, then your own manuals, whatever...and charge whatever you want.

You aren't getting robbed. Nobody is putting a gun to your head, forcing you to buy something.
