Same discussion every decade. Industry earns ever higher profits. Artists earn ever lower. Piracy still as strong as before all the effort and time wasted. Countless billions sunk into squishing teenagers in court. Still not one fair and simple sharing or discovery model. This industry and especially the *AA orgs are evil money presses and should be abolished.

The "music industry" and "anti piracy" are being used to create unprecedent levels of media and internet control. That's the only thing now. They are able to take websites even without formal conclusive legal actions. If you are hit by them, you need to pay the lawyers to have your site back.
