Post a Comment On: Quinthar

Did you know that the ratio of pirated music to legitimately downloaded music is roughly akin to the ratio of salt water to fresh water on the planet?  I noticed this in a moment of exasperation when reading a post casually suggesting how piracy should be reduced to a "livable range".  When translated with the above observation, the statement is about as realistic as:

"We all have to live with a range of salinities... I think the goal is to relegate salt-water to a livable range not to eradicate it altogether, which is likely impossible anyway."

Piracy *is* the digital music industry.  Everything else is a footnote or a rounding error.
