»P2p increases«







Quote:
Peer-to-peer traffic has not declined despite the music industry's aggressive pursuit of illegal file sharers, according to a new study.

Researchers from the University of California at Riverside and the Cooperative Association for Internet Data Analysis evaluated packet data on the internet and found that P2P continues to thrive. Their results are published in a study, titled "Is P2P dying or just hiding?"

"In general we observe that P2P activity has not diminished," says the study, which will be presented at IEEE Globecom 2004 next month. "On the contrary, P2P traffic represents a significant amount of internet traffic and is likely to continue to grow in the future, RIAA behavior notwithstanding."

It's been known for a while that the music industry takes an agressive approach to p2p activity and one technique has been to flood the p2p network with bogus traffic and fake files.

So the figures are kind of meaningless What the...?

The figures disprove the claims of the music industry, that their counter-p2p measures work.

Don't forget that they go with their (wrong) stats to judges and lawmakers to push their law ideas thru.

There are no music industry harassement (court charges against p2p users) in Japan. And their turnover numbers are OK. p2p harassments doesn't work.

You just turn customers into enemies.
