We can say the "People of Europe" to mean all individual "persons" in Europe. We can also say the "Peoples of Europe" to mean the various population groups of Europe. | |

But oddly, Wolfram has an ad campaign for Mathematica going right now with the slogan "One software to rule them all." I think that's a mistake, but it's unusual for a reputable geek company like that to let a grammar error slip out. Maybe the countable usage of "software" is creeping into accepted English. | |
