Hey, I joined on 4th of July 2003!
Anyway:
Violating copyright laws=theft
So, what's going to happen is the same ol' thing. The internet is vast and nobody expected that problems to certain industry would arise from this. Too many people participate in file sharing to stop. Industry will continue to invent measures on ceasing file sharing. New products, loopholes, slight-of-hand, will come out to bypass those measures. Etc., etc.
This will continue...Congress will try and pass laws...people will protest...those laws will fall, and so on and so forth.
Hey, the internet was born for one reason and one reason only, to make life easier. And if downloading a track to listen to in the peace and quiet of your own home is what ya wanna do, then so be it. ;)
