FatalError- I respectfully disagree.
Clearly, they have no hope of actually collecting the sums of money they seek so I think that the whole point of this fiasco is to gain a forum in which to air their grievances.They actually win if they can legitimize the theory that p2p pirates are substantially at fault for their business losses no matter the outcome of this particular trial.
Having tried the "Just Say No" method- and discovered that it works no better for them than it did for Nancy Reagan-this is just phase two of the campaign.
Phase three will be the real attempt to go after everyday users.
Phase four is where they have to decide if they are willing to finance a multiyear,megaexpensive attempt to throttle John/Jane Public.
Personally, I think they will come to their senses before that but what do I know?
We did, after all, try Prohibition in this country...
Jibbler- Yep.
