yup. P2P is taking money out of our pockets and the chunk is getting bigger every month

at least the music and movie biz is fighting back. nobody in adult is. not that it would help, there isn't a content producer in porn with enough money to mount a legal fight, easily a million bucks in legal fees just to roll your sleeves up.

so the best we can hope for is to support Hollywood's efforts.
Futile battle that it may be.

Hollywood is powerful, i think eventually it is going to cost them so much money that Washington will step in and pass some serious legislation. But even then how many copyright policemen can the FBI or whoever would be in charge hire to gather evidence against file traders. Then the cost of prosecuting people.

nightmare man nightmare. I keep trying to imagine what it will be like in 10 years when computers and the Net are even easier to navigate. Will the music and porn biz be half of what is today in total sales? Less? I believe the music industry numbers, I know it from my own shopping behaviour and my friends and my family who run a chain of CD stores.

And shut the fuck up about "the music industry deserves it because the music they put out is all shit". You don't like the music don't fucking buy it. What kind of moron makes an argument that because a product isn't up to his standards it justifies 'stealing' it. And yes, I download music off WinMx, not that often but I do. Never downloaded a movie, porn or mainstream.
