    am not sure, what does the ISP get out of it? i would chase away paying customers, unless the content owners are going to compensate me.

    The ISP gets to sleep at night knowing it has helped to stem the illegal flow of popular french music such as... the french national anthem, and... others. All french people are better than mashable, it's science.

    Is there no end to the impudence of these people

    Cobbet said it all when the landowners enclosed the commons in the UK 200 years ago

    "They punish as a bloody felon
    Who steals the goose from off the common
    But leave the greater villain loose
    Who steals the common from the goose"

    every time anything looks like going out of copyright they get their mates in the legislature to extent the time period by another 25 years.

    They know they've lost - they just want to keep milking the cow till it dies
