Many of you into DRM may support this new event. I however have very mixed feelings. DRM would be more palatable to me if there was a true fair use expiration to copyright that would put material into the public domain after a reasonable period of time as was originally intended. 75 years is presently a bit extreme.

The company shut down operations and agreed to settle the piracy case filed by the Motion Picture Association of America and the Recording Industry Association of America .

Grokster has agreed to stop its practices and to pay some $50 million in damages.

now that's really huge :(

I wonder why the recording industry has made little head way, but once the motion picture association gets involved, it gets some where. Maybe more pull. Read another guy got some jail time for getting caught sharing or downloading from a bittorret.
