If there were no bit torrent technology and all its predecessors and
successors, and so no widespread music piracy, the discussion would be
moot.

If you now work in the private sector, if your potential customers
could get your products or your services for free, you would not have a
job.  Does that change your view about how people in the music business
(from artists to companies to everyone else involved) feel about
piracy, and why DRM and crazy infringment suits have not gone away?
They are fighting for their jobs, their businesses, and their industry.
I don't agree with everything they have done, but I understand the
problem and it remains unsolved.
