If P2P isn't controlled, the major labels will just diversify and go and sell soap powder or cat food instead; it's the real musicians that are getting hit the worst by file sharing.

Do they know or care that files "shared" may not even be uploaded to anyone, and so many software and games titles are legally sharable. What may be in contention is uncrippled software, but can they spot the difference or do they care? No and no. Even if they were able to download something which had a copyright concern, it has been shown in high court that is not legal evidence, as it was done with copyright holder permission which doesn't prove illegal distribution. If not then they have illegally downloaded and neither is that admissible. You can't commit a "crime" to get "evidence" of a "crime".

LOL Maybe the government will take this shit seriously and realize how ridiculous all this really is. It only serves one interest and even the government is not immune to the greed of the copyright lobby That’s just great!
