Limewire, RIAA, MPAA?

Lot of things happened in 2006, with respect to FTP...Esp P2P... Its also the time when all file sharing network closed shops, with a few exception the major being limewire, being sued, and the uploader/downloader getting sued by RIAA,including Top25 Universities,Now the question is, If RIAA concerned about copy right violation, why cant they bring down the cost of the products, since they are almost convinced there are more illegal downloader compared to legal one, like if they cut down the cost, they larger/bigger market. 2. How come government thinks of copy right violation, if there is personal data violation from these company, example Sony BMG ruling. Is RIAA going to sue everyone across the globe, Is it Legally possible? To my suggestion if RIAA & MPAA thinks there is more violation, they should cut down the cost, so that they can represent larger market, so that everyone can benefit from them, users are happy, law makers are happy, owners are happy.

1. I don't know what you mean about p2p being closed.... i've been using dc++ for 6 years now without a hitch http://sourceforge.net/projects/dcplusplus/ I get anywhere between 10-30GB a week worth of movies games music and software and only problem i've had is wearing out dvd burners.....i don't actually watch that many movies but lately I've been getting the 7gb dual layer images and I got a nephew who just has to have every friggin ps2 game there is. hundreds of solid hubs and they're all run independantly across the globe. some even basic servers running out of someone's house that support a 3k user hub.....none of them have shut down except for the occasional 4 min reboot. PS...as far as cutting cost for the legal licensing, they are doing that....itunes anyone? Price of music cds in 1999-2000 was approaching 20 bucks a disc. Now with the $1 a song model you see retail chains offering new releases albums at 10 bucks,sometimes less.....and they're upping the content with dvd video and extras included right on the album. Movies are starting to see a similar trend as more people are buing blank dvds.....you know just about every new release sold in mexico is available for $5US. That's because the mexican market dictates that...if sales continue to fall in the US markets then prices will drop with them. Beyond that, they're not the ones breaking the law....I download tons of stuff for sure but yeah I'm also breaking copyrights by doing so....If they got the law on their side why shouldn't they use all avenues available to maintain their profits. I wouldn't expect them to just close up shop and call it a done deal. Whatever the market environment looks like they're still going to try to maximize the revenue.
