But the statement that this, if anything, promotes bungie is just like with Napster. There are hundreds of people who say that things like this promote music and that people are just getting their panties in a wad, but the down to earth truth is that you're actually stealing that music, until you buy the CD...

I'm not going to argue about napster, it's been done before, but selling Halo swag is not right. hell, it shouldn't be done. now, if you wanted to give away the stickers and shirts for free, and make sure the people paid ample money for shipping and handling, and maybe made a donation or two along with it that just might pay for the cost of the shirt, then maybe that would work, bu tblatantly selling bungie's merchandise it not legal. You cannot make a profit off of something from someone else, no matter how good it sounds :)
