Absolutely not. Information wants to be free, and has been banging on the door of the law for years now.

Instead of fighting what we consider to be "illegal content," why not work with these content-sharing systems. After all, every piece of media posted on the internet has value - whether we define it as funds in the currency of our choice, or promotional value.

As an entrepreneur in the music industry, I agree with Steven Dolle. Inside the industry is a core business model, based on principles that many of us would never consider functional out in the real world. The business model must change, just as the market has - and then, we'll begin seeing these labels return to selling music, rather than only small plastic disks that contain it.
