Yet we just heard that Adele's new album broke a sales record.

In my opinion the industry has tended to use file sharing as a scapegoat. It should be looking at the quality of its products, its marketing and its lack of innovatively creating niches in a way that responds to technological and societal changes rather than attempting to legislate against those changes.

Also, I definitely would "steal" a TV, and I'd "steal" everything and anything else, too, if it were somehow possible to make a copy of the TV or whatever so that the TV I copied from is unaffected and still in the possession of its owner.
