negative. Once Napster got blown out, the pirated music world took a steep dive. The death of Napster allowed things such as Itunes to flourish. The problem of the high end torrent sites right now is that they are getting huge amounts of traffic, and more and more potential paying customers are no longer paying. It is intolerable.
At this point, there is only a very few countries left where these guys can hide before they get shut down. When the Swedish government wakes up and smells the coffee, torrent sites will become like MP3 traders - there is still a bunch of it out there, but the general public is much more likely now to BUY music than there are to steal it.
