Where's that figure from Jeremy? Who counts how many 'illegal'
downloads there are? Nobody. They're
guestimates.
I
agree, illegal downloading is a problem, and even Itunes selling music at 99c a
pop isn't going to stop the downloads (much in the same way as budget software
retailing for only £1.99 still used to get pirated).
The
argument I can't understand though, is people who say "I didn't want the whole
album, only a couple of tracks..." and then download the whole album
anyway... if it's worth downloading, surely it's worth paying
for?

Under this thinking, downloaders would flock
to apples Itunes or similar where you can buy only the songs you want, and
for a reasonable price. However despite reasonable sales on itunes, illegal
downloads still trounce legal ones by about 10,000,000,000 to
