I think that yes, they do have a point. Technically it is piracy, but they should be thinking how to capatilize on it rather than sue everyone. Downloading an album will never be as good as buying one. It is time consuming and tedious to download your music instead of buying it. Especially if you dont listen to mainstream.

I agree that, in premise, it's sound. However, I think that the money isn't going to the right places... The lawyers and top execs see all the cash won from that. Everything else is just for publicity.
When the media can push fearsome stories about some dude getting slapped with a huge fine, they can curb a bit of the activity. However, I think there's other ways to do it. Itunes is a great start...

Most mainstream acts don't really make their money on albums anyway. They make their money touring with t-shirts going for $50 plus etc. To me this lessens the argument about piracy when they can make their money in other ways.
