They don't take responsibility and act in a very childish way, an example being this "IPREDator" you speak of. They claim that the music/film etc. industries don't need anymore cash, and they're offering free advertisement for these companies by downloading their stuff. How would a basement geek advertise to his other geek friends who also don't buy anything? It's not just about them. The little people lose out, all those store owners and online shops trying to make a living. Unfortunately I think file sharing will continue growing unless the media companies restructure how they work. The file sharing services cannot continue to claim ignorance to the 99% of illegal stuff on their networks. They're making money from these sites so should pay staff to moderate, or be shut down.
