The entertainment industry globally is experiancing huge growth
in online revenue by the figures , the idea that piracy is impacting on this revenue is likely very true but I'd wager the losses are no where near $58 B or as a percentage of gross are insignificantly small ,imo the real long term goal has little to do with online piracy

Its hard to see through all the fog on this issue , my feelings are that
the big players in the industry were always a little lost on how
to deal with the web, Mr Murdochs spray of $540 M against the wall regarding myspace sort of supports that ,but they do understand the notion of a controllong interest and someday somehow through legistlative help,buyouts or plain old conniving persistance they will get there way.
