Heh, I think my outrage stems from experience of the music biz. It used to bug me when touts were making shitloads of money off of the fans when the fans were giving cash to see the bands and the bands weren't directly or indirectly earning the tout profit even though a lot of bands were still way short of break-even at that point.
The distinction for me was always, is someone earning money off of someone else's creativity and energy when those people are not earning a slice of that money?

Anyhow, Alexa rankings? What are those?
