What strategies do you use to deal with the fact that file sharing exists?
Personally, I'm torn on the issue. It pisses me off that so much free porn is available, and I know that there are many people out there who rely only on free porn to jack off.
On the other hand, I have been giving out watered-down versions of my own videos on Kazaa to use as advertisements. However, I have no way of knowing if this helps or hurts sales.

Well, there are about 40,000 p2p file sharing applications, and every time one gets shut down a more effective and complicated one is created (ie, compare the sophistication of napster to kazaa).
In short - take the free advertising it will provide. It's like TGP on someone else's bandwidth.
What exactly would the government be able to do about it anyway?
