Wrong.

"No reproducing or distributing this material without expressed written permission of the artist under penalty of law".
Or something like that.

There are ways for artists to make the money but from "File Sharing".

peace

Actually I wasn't making a legal argument more or a pragmatic point that it is ridiculous to punish someone for sharing something they bought when they are not profiting at the detriment to the producer. We're talking a whole different ball game when someone is reproducing a product and selling it rather than when they reproduce it and share it with friends. I think most would agree with that.
