"What kind of peace do I mean? What kind of peace do we seek? Not a Pax Americana enforced on the world by American weapons of war. Not the peace of the grave or the security of the slave. I am talking about genuine peace, the kind of peace that makes life on earth worth living, the kind that enables men and nations to grow and to hope and to build a better life for their children - not merely peace for Americans but peace for all men and women - not merely peace in our time but peace for all time." -- JFK

Tim O'Reilly [openp2p.com] explains the economics of distribution and file sharing. He clearly points out that the industries will prosper, but some business models will need to change. The music industry pirates (by which I mean the convicted conspiratorial oligopolists waging war on their customers with the goal of preventing competition) will have to buy a few more Senators to overcome this concise, accurate analysis. Good thing for them Senators are so cheap.

The article itself, by the way, is not politically charged in its choice of words. It's pretty straight on the delivery of the facts. It is the *facts* that are politically charged.
