No decrease in illegal downloading

This morning I read an article titled as above. It made me wonder what it will take to get through to those who just won't do what is right by law or conscience or for any other reason.

No decrease in illegal downloading, says BPI.

For the uninitiated, music files are available online in a number of places. Search engines quickly find specific artists or titles of interest where individuals can obtain copies (many of which are copyright protected).

As a technician, I have been asked to remove such files from home computers when their drives became so full there was no more space for the operating system to run properly!

How would you feel when asked to clean up the mess of a disobedient youngster while knowing that once the work is done, he will resume the same practice over again (if not restrained)?
