Re: on average,

Well, it makes no sense to hide the fact that content gets pirated over the internet. The best yahoo can accomplish is to re-package that content for a subscription model all the while giving consumers everything they want-- ie the abiltiy to do whatever they want with the content and to have it ALL in ONE PLACE while shielding them from potential copyright infringement as a benefit. This is the kind of model that will perpetuate an ALL-IN-ONE content provider for software, text, multimedia, music, movies, etc, etc downloadable at ONE place... which is not what the yahoo offering is, but would have to move towards if it is to be successful in the long term.

And the coyright holders? If they don't agree, they can still deal with either limited royalties, or no royalties, their choice.
