education doesn't work, being tough doesn't work, cheaper price doesn't work, DRM doesn't work, rootkit doesn't work.

Some people are just too cheap to ever buy anything especially if they can get it for free. Your never convert them.

Putting people in jail is the only thing that works, but as soon as they are release, they go back to there old habits.

The only time piracy is going to stop is when buying software or movies you are going to get a better deal then the pirated versions.

Not just about having lower pricess in software and movies but also say you own a dvd movie and you damage the disc you should get a replacment from the store.

This is not going to happen. So pircay will never go away.

The truth is pirates provide a better deal.

Whats this that pircay hurts the economy or movie makers.

If piracy really was doing any damage you would not have actors making millions per movie, or movies having such high budgets.

Piracy is not doing anything. Maybe instead of having 100 million dollars they 98 million dollars.

Only two would be able to stop it: God, and the Devil (AntiChrist).

And the RIAA is neither.

I personally download movies, if its good I will go see it in the cinema/buy in BD after but there is noway that I will waste money for no reason. Trailers are no go as they only highlight the best possible parts of a movie.

I only download for me, I never back up to disk.

Except for pricing, the media has been very smart. Please note... they are trying to force others to do the policing without any support from them. They LOVE to dump on the world! That is what the do best. They started with the artists, then the public, now industry. Forcing the ISPs to go on a fool's errand for them without any assistance from them is all part of their game plan. They don't care how much it costs as long as they don't pay for it, other than bribing the politicians. That they must do anyway to keep all the unjust laws inplace.

I forgot China!
They have just made a law to rid China from piracy lol!

All computers sold in China will have IP blockers. I guess they think persons would never remove the software. That is what happens when old farts make all the laws.
