Funny. BUT...
Every digital file ever created can be extracted for free from this easily computable irrational binary number:
0.11011100101110111100010011010101111001101111011111000010001...
(which is approximately 0.86224012586805 in decimal)
No digital file has ever been nor will ever be made that cannot be found in that number.
This is why I don't need, nor never even wanted, to own an iPod.
And how can one get files from this...?

Simple arithmetic (in binary). Why? Because:
All files are strings of 0's and 1's.
All strings of 0's and 1's are binary numbers.
Therefore all files are binary numbers.
I think this was obvious to ALL computer geeks before Windows.
Unless you're leaving a step out, that seems rather similar to saying that you never need to buy another book, because you can sing the Alphabet Song, and all words (and thus all books) are implicit in the structure of the alphabet.
