People need to keep in mind the IP clause of the constitution. IP exists to promote the progress of science and art, not to pad wallets by controlling it for decades.

How does that clause read?

i look forward to the day when people entertain for the sake of entertaining, and not personal profit. and that everyone will DO EET and show their true selves by aspiring to be entertainers. ALL OF US. all humans will be artists, and all humans will be scientists. no businessmen, no corporate elites, no government. just entertainers and people who love to learn
creativity will be in full force and motivation will come from within. we will go to space and play our shitty music on other planets

Eh, I still think torrenting is relatively safe.
I'm sure they'll be going after the torrent search engines and massive uploaders, not a "few-albums-a-year" downloaders like me.

i have nothing against people in the music industry making a buck. i just think they need to realize that piracy isn't going anywhere and if they want people buying stuff they need to change their business model where the consumer is offered something more in exchange for their money, make better music, or both. i can't tell you how much money i've saved by pulling stuff down only to discover that it's complete shit. i buy what sounds good to me, throw away what isn't.

I did not take what was intended to cost money. The CD/DVD and the packaging that they are selling is still in the store. I didn't take it or anything else. In fact, someone bought one and I made a copy.
I stole nothing.

Quoting late in the discussion but my God do moneyed types get histrionic about piracy.
RIAA musicians don't make money on their CDs, they make money on their image - merchandise, tours, licensing deals. Plus, when you download an album, no windows break and no one has to get their insurance to pay for lost property. Moreover, WE don't have to get mugged by paying $20 for an album only to discover we lost money on a piece of shit we'll never listen to again.
