| ISP Warnings only drive it further underground
Already the number of people who still use p2p vs. less traceable methods such as IRC, Usenet, and direct download services like Rapidshare and Megaupload is decreasing. MAFIAA mandated ISP crackdowns will force more people to use means of getting content that are much harder to stop than p2p is, and furthermore encrypt every part of the file transfer.
Let's see Audible Magic and other anti-piracy companies try to deal with that.

said by mythology  :72% of people would get a new ISP. That doesn't work for those who have limited ISPs like my area (no DSL, no FIOS, etc.) that only has cable modem. |

again, this is about control in what we say/do on the interent.
the MPAA and RIAA are the thieves and need to let go.
i still advise all to use this and keep it up to date:
»phoenixlabs.org/pg2/
it offers some protection from this crap.
the RIAA and MPAA are worried about their bottom line. they don't give a fuck about us or the artist they represent.

Davie, FL | Wow, businesses trying to protect THEIR property? Who would have thought? Wal*Mart only cares about their bottom line as well. I guess it's okay for me to shoplift. |

Another thing that the MAFIAA will never be able to stop is
the trading of content via portable hard drives. Considering
how cheap these are, a person can bring his entire library of
music and ripped DVDs over to their friends' houses, and allow
them to copy whatever they want.
The same thing is going on on college campuses, and is likely
more popular where draconian anti-p2p policies have been put
into place on the school's network.

it's not their property, it's the property of the ARTIST.
when will you learn? it's about CONTROL. america is almost dead.
i do not support the mafIAA at all.
i haven't purchased a cd since this shit started. and i will stick to my word.
and from what i heard the artist gets treated like crap beyond belief. so if you want to support greed, then buy cds and watch foax news. if you want to be a part of the revolution then wake up and join the fight.
there are so few of them and many of us.

Colleges could also just see P2P moving to existing solely with in the College Network and never exiting out to the internet and as such never crossing their firewalls which would mean the RIAA couldnt track it unless they had hardware setup to monitor the LAN as well.

So what are you actively doing to support the artist whose music you're listening to/stealing from? |
