"You could argue that filesharing hinders some people from
earning as much money as they would have if filesharing was not -->
possible. But now it is possible, the technology is there, and
then the industry needs to find new ways of handling it. They've
had the chance to work on new ways for 10 years but haven't come
up with much else than silly trailers that say filesharing is theft.
[...] When new technology emerges, it's not necessarily it that
must be adapted to the old ways. Sometimes, the industry itself
must adapt."
-- Akko Karlsson, member of the Swedish Green Party's executive
board, "Filesharing is not theft" [editorial published in
two Swedish newspapers, I don't have a link to a copy of the
entire editorial], as reported on TorrentFreak
