i really don't think this is a solution.

it's a safe bet that the massive pool of completely anonymous software developers in the world (many of whom operate outside the reach of our justice system) will continue to make it fairly easy for people who wish to avoid detection to do so

independant musicans need to embrace p2p and start working on new ways to create value and to win the loyalty of their fans

not because it's the right or wrong thing to do - but because history never looks kindly on people who refuse to adapt to a fundamentally altered world.
