The industrial revolution is based on the necessity of war to fuel the fire. Economy historically requires a "war" of some sort to make nations survive. War gives you jobs to fight against whatever it is you are fighting against. In this era technology is the battle field. Sharing of files is simply an environment to wage a war to "nurture" the economy.

When napster was under attack, I heard an analogy that stuck in my mind:

You sell water in the desert. One day it begins to rain and it does not stop. What do you do for money now?

Apparently you start an organization that enforces laws that no one voted on to control the water resulting from the rainfall.

Of course, that is just my perception of the whole thing.
