Hey guys

Well I haven't been around here even remotely as much as I'd like to be... hope everyone is well! The reason I have been MIA is mainly due to a ridiculous amount of uni work for my final year. My main piece of work is a dissertation on illegal music downloading, and as I'm scouring the net for articles I figured there might well some people on banter with some opinions, figures, sources, or ideas that I haven't thought of.

There's a lot more going on in the US than here in Scotland so anything you guys know is appreciated.

The broad view of the work is on the legal side. Mainly:

1. are the laws against downloading too difficult to enforce since the growth of downloading;

2. Is treatment of downloaders unfair?;

3. and Comparing the response to illegal downloading in the US and UK

If there's anything you think is worth mentioning or any good sites/contacts I might find useful, it would be much appreciated. Thanks.
