The music biz sent IMs to thousands of song swappers who had copyrighted songs available for download from their Grokster and Kazaa nodes. I greatly prefer the industry taking such technical steps to stop song swapping to taking legislative ones. Ultimately, I think the steps are pointless and the industry should really start giving people want they want. I don’t think free music is really what people are after… they’re after supporting the musicians by buying music at reasonable prices. I don’t think the general public (myself included) cares very much about the industry middlemen.
