File Swapping

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Video CD : One Thread

Hmm, Kazaa and other file swap users might want to read this news story. The story details efforts by the RIAA, but I know that the MPAA is watching as well.

Any thoughts?

yes u and???? Piracy will live forever! Dont believe me, learn about History, i mean history in piracy, up to modern day you will realise that the common people are more inteligent than the leaders think.

Argue all we will, the people will find a way, the internet helps this ten fold, unfortunately some people are sick and abuse this tool!!

I'm not doubting that there will always be pirates. There were media pirates long before the internet. Current technology is only one facet of pirating.

But— what do you think will happen with current peer to peer file sharing? If this court challenge is successful, do you have any ideas as to what the next mass-piracy method might be?
