		<description>I didn&#039;t read it like that but maybe I&#039;m being optimistic. I understood:-

- No new controls on file sharing
- ISPs encouraged to voluntarily work with their association and hence with th BPI to stop file sharing
- Increased penalties for commercial counterfeiting.

It does seem to be extremely hard to discuss this rationally and to separate *commercial* counterfeiting for *profit* from *private* individuals sharing files for *free*.

But then he also suggested that while copying for pesonal use should be made legal it shouldn&#039;t be retrospective and should only apply to purchases made after the law changes. And for old CDs, the record companies should sell us a blanket license to copy. As if! So clearly he is a &quot;reactionary old goon who should be ignored.&quot;</description>
