I almost choked when I read this.

I wonder who sponsored this stellar investigative journalism...
Quote:
Eisgrau, who is also a vice president at Flanagan Consulting, a political lobbying group formed by former Congressman Mike Flanagan, said vested interests such as the music and movie business have promoted misinformation about P2P networks in order to "cripple the P2P industry."

The "P2P Industry" is doing a better job of crippling itself than the RIAA can ever hope for. Way to go!
Quote:
As the copyright holder for pirated music, the industry has the moral high ground.

Another hilarious quote, or a rather revealing slip of the subconscious?
Quote:
"NGSCB has great privacy enhancing potential, and deployments by developers, not just Microsoft will be the real test. Microsoft has recognised there is a privacy issue in here, that privacy can be got right and in that sense we should all work with them, give them the benefit of the doubt and urge them to do the right thing because they recognise the right thing needs to be done" Crompton said.

Crompton was actually making some valid points in previous paragraphs. What idiot believes that any business, particularly this one, can be influenced by gentle moral persuasion?
Quote:
A quarterly digital music behavior report from research firm Ipsos-Insight shows that in late June 2003, "roughly" one out of six (16 percent) of U.S. music downloaders aged 12 and older had paid to download music online. The company says this is the equivalent of 10 million people.

This figure might be more believable than the "75% of internet users" of a few weeks ago, but I still don't buy it.
Congrats on another P2P-Zone anniversary!
