You know what Kalniel, i dont think we are actually arguing different sides here.
Your completely correct in saying that we need to pay for content we use to drive innovation.
BUT and this is the big BUT, in my oppinion: File sharing is NOT the problem here.
Freeloaders will always be freeloaders. But the reason filesharing has become such an issue is not because everybody is a freeloader. Its simply because the technology and market have changed in such a way that instant access to media is possible and is what people expect, but the industries HAVEN'T. Remember pre-iTunes, if you wanted music fast you downloaded it, iTunes came and BANG, a large portion of your average internet users moved to services like iTunes because they were organised, decent and trustworthy.
The problem
imo is simply that industries are trying to stick to the old ways rather than catch up with technology and provide the market with what it wants. The market wants fast easy access to media, and illegality is the main option at the moment. The moment webstreaming comes over here and other such services appear and are easy and cheap, a large portion of your illegal sharers will move over to that system.
The issue isn't that people aren't paying for content which is hurting innovation, its that the content isn't being provided to people in a way they are happy to pay for.
