Did your old mix tapes kill music or did they make you buy more records? Hollywood, the big record companies and the US government definitely believes that they killed the business. Now, 20 years later, they have forced the swedish government to close down the Pirate Bay, a swedish bit torrent tracker. Our Minister for Justice, Thomas Bodström, choose to listen to Big Brothers friendly threats instead of informing Him of the swedish law. I suggest that Big Brother and the entertainment industry celebrates while they can - the tracker will probably be up and working again in a day or two. They should also contemplate how come people choose to steal their products instead of paying for them. Maybe it's time to adapt their prices to what the market is willing to pay? Isn't that why capitalism is so superior? It makes things better and cheaper. And what do you do if the market demands movies and music for free? Isn't the customer always right? Support Piratbyrån.
