It was Rick Bennett that managed to come up with a soul catchers program license for his first clients. This happened in his first time of opening up his advanced advertising agency. His argument was that instead wholly inconveniencing customers with inconvenient software-protection structures, even pessimists would take it more seriously when they are faced with the threat to lose their souls.
The outcomes were quite astounding. The advertisement ran only once in a particular magazine known as PC magazine. Due to the unusual approach, a magazine known as The Wall Street Journal continued to market him. This consequently made the client to get thousands unsolicited dollars for several months after the advertisement ran.
He persuaded his customer to offer a source code for their software program. He thought that the customer did not want to back the software, and that the users would also like to solve their own problems. Amazingly, this was the antecedent to the current open-source movement, whereby major branded products are being dislodged by LINUX operating system, Netscape browsers and Apachee Web servers.
The source codes that run all these products can be freely accessed on the internet. Rick was struck by this idea in 1966. This was during his first year of study at Whitman College. He asked one of the students professed to be an atheist to prove it by selling his soul to him (Rick) for five dollars. The student agreed but was haunted by the transaction until he wanted it back where e paid one hundred dollars for it.
The recording business is destined for doom in its struggle with Napster. This is attributed to the fact that the internet is uncontrollable. In the event Napster fails in the court ruling, or suppose there is legislation against the sharing of files then Napster will be forced to move offshore.
Motion picture and recording companies alongside eBook publisher may opt for the more rational method to copy right security. As for the whole industry, they may be least interested. That is how the Soul Catchers phrase came to existence.
