hahaha - I had forgotten all about encryption and how it could be applied to file sharing! Read this:

The RIAA will have to have turn-coats and deep cover spies now...

Man - this whole file sharing thing and the just as equally destructive CD-R copying is a permanant, market-share eroding thing, unless something radical is changed. Like outlawing P2P software and CD-R burners. And I still say a major reason those exist in the forms they do now is because the law wasn't followed regarding "fair use" way back when. Innovation and education may recover market-share, but this is just way more insidious than some of the other examples people have used that say fear of technology and it's end effects are overstated.
