Free peer-to-peer music file-sharing has become larger than the multibillion dollar recording industry with a growth trend that has become "fundamentally unstoppable," a media analyst told a state Senate committee exploring Internet piracy on Thursday.
The free downloading habit among 61 million Americans and millions more worldwide is "cemented," with only 9 percent of U.S. downloaders believing they are doing anything wrong, said Eric Garland, founder of Beverly Hills-based Big Champagne, which analyzes Internet trends.
"We see only one trend," said Garland. "More people are downloading more copyrighted material."
We're just waiting for our fat politicos to sing!
