Diane Medved at TownHall writes: Help me here. What is it about “virtual goods”–imaginary own-ables in online community or commercial fake-world games–that leads Americans to shell out a projected $1.6 billion this year in our jobless economy?

However, often times people take advantage of the rarity of some CDs to sell unsuspecting (or, sometimes, desperate) people bootlegs. [...]

I most likely didn’t post this here before, as it doesn’t turn up in a search. But I discovered this goofy act of plagiarism a long time ago: Rick Springfield, 1981: Rick Springfield’s “Jessie’s Girl” The Coca-Cola Company, 1993: Always Coca Cola
