nowadays, there are itunes cards for sale in stores I go to everyday, and people are buying them.... if the world had given up and just let napster do its thing, there would be no itunes music cards for sale... the public were reminded that downloading copyrighted stuff was wrong, and many looked toward legal alternatives

it is when total complacence toward copyright theft is allowed that things get really bad.... the future is more enforcement and new legal solutions in countries like Sweden that are currently letting pirates have asylum to set up their parasitic websites
Do you realise how many p2p clients there are out there? The only people who pay for music now are pretty much the same people that would of paid in the past. Everyone else uses limewire, etc, they are exactly the same as napster was.
