 This can't work.

There is absolutely no way that organizations such as the MPAA or the RIAA can pursue legal action against everyone trading every file, especially if trading approaches what their inflated statistics claim that it does.

They are using the fear factor, fear of legal action which cannot be easily fought, to go after file traders.

This is customer alienation in extremis. The RIAA can expect another dramatic sales drop right about now.

  I would have to agree on this as I for one don't think that outside of a class action lawsuit against users of the gnutella network, that this would work. And even then Fair Use would be perfectly acceptable, Unless one is either the MPAA or RIAA of course.
