After their former hosting provider received an injunction telling it to stop providing bandwidth to The Pirate Bay, the worlds most resilient BitTorrent site switched to a new ISP. That host, the Swedish Pirate Party, made a stand on principle. Now they aim to take things further by running the site from inside the Swedish Parliament.

This is not the horse and buggy age, it's the electronic age. If my family is starving for wont of knowledge then I have the moral right (and the obligation) to pirate that knowledge.

I at least wish Canada had a similar party to draw attention to all the copyright bullshit that's going on in our legislature right now. Even after letters, committee's, and petitions, it seems MP's are either too dumb to realize the shaft regular people are going to get, or they're too busy covering up their expenses from the AG. :/

They're obviously a little more 'polite' than their Swedish compatriots because this is the first time I've heard of them. 
Hopefully they'll make some more noise come the next election. C-32 sucks for anyone with digital media in their hands.

Existing industries need to adapt and change to new markets (digital distribution / the internet / whatever) rather than pressurise gov't into legislating against any change they don't like.

Agreed, and some already do, which is pretty cool. Some even put up their own free videos and stuff to listen to their music, which is honestly pretty awesome.
Music artists shouldn't have much a problem, to be honest.
Movies and games, though, are a bit more complicated...

Games:
Hardly - charge for access to the multiplayer match-making servers.
Single player... harder.
Movies:
Cinema takings not enough, huh? (If they weren't, then all movie studios would be bust, because according to the MPAA, piracy is already killing them, which is why there have been easily more than 20 new movies in the last 4 weeks...)
Renguard is a wonderful initiative

You cant stop piracy. Its as simple as that. What is left to be done?
In the case of music:
Either you'll have to be prolific and very fan-engaging (see: amanda palmer) or you'll have to make something unique and important enough so that people will always be willing to pay/donate for you records (see: obscure electronic scenes etc.). In either case, you wont be particularly wealthy. Then again, most jobs in the world wont make you particularly wealthy, or it wouldnt be 'particularly', right?
In the case of film: deal with it. There will always be people who will want to watch it IMAX or whatever. Will those people be enough to pay for films? I doubt it. To make this medium as fan-engaging as music is obviously impossible since there are lots and lots of people part of the film-making process, most of which the audience will never know about (Who cares about technical nods or best make-up at the oscars etc.? Exactly). Instead, I think the industry will have to deal with making a profit off DVD and cinema-sales for as long as possible, and then give way to smaller, more indie productions. Will Blockbusters come out every week in 20 years? possibly not. Will it be the end of the world? No.
The most important thing is: music and tv and film are all fine art forms, but it might well happen that consumers will not be willing to pay for them anymore in a few decades. Theres nothing to do about this. These types of artistic expression may then become a niche-product for the select few. And thats fine too. We'll just invent new art forms. These may very well be more fragile and short-lived than films or music. One-time-live-perfomances etc. I dont know. The point is: artistic expression will always survive as long as people have stories to tell, emotions to convey, social arguments to make.
Oh, an the pirate party is way cool.

Torrents are awesome,
You can't play a game online without a valid serial code - Which is the best part of the game, so I don't see the problem with downloading movies/music/games for my private use.
If and when I download a game/music/movie and like it, I'll buy it (excluded to games only for the multiplayer)

Music torrents - cant be stopped i even admit to using these
Game torrents - are pointless due to most torrent games cant be played online. therefore this is only good for single player only games such as older GTA games and Deadrising... though its fun to play some games personaly before buy as Azazel said
Movie torrents - I'd rather just go get the movie... much easier
|
Music - i kinda agree even tho i download em from youtube 
Games- well yah obviously some cant be online cos if its torrented and a game requires an .exe that runs online well thats gonna be hard
Movie- exactly, also if you tourrent a movie, then your gonna get a crap quality

Liquedv2, yew need to branch out a little on your thinking. I'm sure you'll twig it soon enough, but you're barking up the wrong tree.
The map is budding with new ideas and great game-play, AitcraftKiller just has to get to the root of the problem, it seems to have him pretty stumped right now.
Leaf him alone, he's doing a good job. I'm going to go out on a limb here, and say this map isn't fir you.
Anyway, this thread is really starting to lumber along, all this over some sap's map? I thought the game was dead, but this thread at least is poplar. It makes me pine for the days of yonder.
At the end of the day, life's a Beech.. Who wood of thought it?
