Saw this news piece:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/arts/netmusic/story/0,13368,1553962,00.html

if you sign up with this ISP, you can share all of Sony's catalog
with other users of the ISP legally.

UK only, so it doesn't help me :(

W O W ! ! !

That, is ground breaking news and far reaching in scope!

Makes sense if you think about it (and maybe this signals that there is some
actual intelligence in the RIAA).  Why fight what cannot be beat?  Have the
ISP's add a new level of service to their products, one that includes a
licensing fee similar to an eMusic fee, or a Napster fee, then let the
subscribers take care of their own distribution.

Pretty damn brilliant actually.
