Is BitTorrent Wrong?

What is God saying with respect the ubiquitous - omnipresent like God is - pervasive free downloading of movies, music, programs, etc.? I believe He is saying FIND A NEW BUSINESS MODEL! Or your companies' are going to no longer be able to compete and become yesterday's news. God is also placing a value on your products by how easily they are distributed through global internet file sharing.

One interesting fact you might not be aware of is a lot of musicians have received virtually no royalties from their songs for decades by big company label names, but with the advent of online purchases of music these artists are now receiving 50% of each .mp3 that is purchased online.

Napster created new demand for products that is initially sampled through file sharing before buying it online or in a store. The incremental new demand for products that otherwise would not have taken place has been so great it is incalculable.

We have seen with the shutdown of Napster thousands of 'Napster spawn that are much better bread'. And that you can't shut down! This is the music industry's worse nightmare which corroborates every word in this thread whether you like it or not. This extends to ALL INTERNET PRODUCTS!

Dinosaurs are trying to stop development in the world for the sake of obvious profit, delaying the foundations of the way we want to behave towards one another. If you are an ancestor who is trying to stop this from happening by holding onto old business models, you're a crummy person typically a CEO. And that's how you will be remembered in posterity.
