Gr$$d = Insane copyright laws.

Most of the problem could be solved in an instant by simply reducing prices to a more reasonable level, and providing a high quality download services for a reasonable fee.

I think a lot of people would rather pay a small fee to download hassle free, rather than mess around with unreliable p2p dl's.

As for bit torrent, the only argument the p2p download police have, is that the site operators are most likely knowingly assisting people to download copyrighted material without paying for it. The reason is that they moderate the torrent content that shows up on their websites.
