This seems to feed into the idea that conservation is an all or nothing 
affair, which I find to be a pretty common conception. Maybe this was 
just a joking comment, or maybe not, but in any case I think this is a 
valid point to bring up. The fact is, if you're interested in the 
health of the environment, you should do whatever you can to advance 
that cause. You don't have to sell all your stuff and wear buckskin 
clothes, but do what you can. If you can avoid consuming CD's but don't 
wish to give up your computer, by all means go for it. Small steps in 
the right direction are better than nothing at all.
