You know what? When I was 13, I used to borrow cassette tapes from buddies of mine and record them to blank tapes to listen to without paying. I also used to tape songs from the radio and make mixed tapes for myself. Guess what? I didn't pay for any of it! You can't say that the music industry didn't know this type of activity was going on and they never made a stink about it because it didn't put a "dent" in their wallets. Now that technology has progressed, we have found a new way to "copy our tapes". I can see how P2P can be used to transport some types of questionable material that the authorities would be interested in (ie terrorist type stuff, bomb making plans, etc.), but lets get real, people sharing their files is their prerogative. Maybe the gov't should be craking down on this terrorist thing a little harder.
