No, obviously they can't. I don't even think it's about buying it or not buying it. Because they real Navy will go out there and get it, multiple copies.
It's the idea of getting it first and before the rest of the general public...it creates an irrational lust for obtaining the illusive, unattainable gift. It makes no sense, but that's where we are as a culture.
We have become a population across the world that demands things
"right now" and wanting everything immediately, if not sooner.
I mean really, ever since mid 2006, the record-buying public was introduced to this new form of obtaining music via internet leaks. And since then, they've become
entitled to have early, unauthorized access to the music of their favorite artists before it hits the digital or retail marketplace.
It's not right, but that's the way it is now.
