It's a good way of showing people that there are other alternatives.
Instead of .mp3, maybe someone discovers .ogg. Etc. I do think that
Pirate Parties need to be more "educational" if we want to reach the
general public. Information policy is still a very marginalised issue in
politics, and it needs not to be. And if we like to compare ourselves
with the Greens from the 80s and the Labour movements from the 1910s:
they ran educational campaigns, showed alternatives, had workshops,
social courses, etc.
