However, according to the MPAA/RIAA pyramid of piracy, bittorrent is at the bottom and it would be much more effective to go for the top of the pyramid.

Does this mean that Bittorrent will soon be closed?

They can't stop us...
Every day 1000's of people pirate their first song, and probably less than 1 person a day is caught. They need to lower prices of songs, its another form of protest really.

:huh:

I get the basic point you are trying to make though, I agree with you there.

Hmm, well what are you going to do? The ods of getting caught are minute, however, it is a real possibility. If you want to be "safer", get a membership at an axx site. However, they could subpoena the site to turn over all financial records.

In Portugal we are safe (?) the police doesn't have enough money and men to investigate. At least i hope not, they have others priorities.
