This statement is partially true. As a member of the unmentioned adult world, I'd like to add that we, adults, do swap files just as much or even more than other age groups. Stop trying to blame problems on other people and admit to what we are doing. Besides, how many children and teenagers actually OWN their computers? Slim to none I might say. In fact, these computers are owned by their parents, adults. You wouldn't let your child or teenager illegally go joyriding in with your vehicle, so why do you let them do it with your computers?

Just a couple of questions: Would it be a better use for the people money than defend the interest of a very wealthy industry? Public ealth, school system, ... Actors and singers live lavishly despite the losses and they brag about money all the time. Record and movie execs have even more money, but they are more discreet. Does 10 millions or 9 make that much difference? Probably so... What's the max penalty for stealing a CD from the store? Guess far less than 250k and 5 years in the big house Peace Mike Houses Here we go again, folks!
