Interesting post here:
http://www.p2pconsortium.com/index.php?showtopic=15274 on how the (european) RIAA has little to offer on their position that file sharing is theft, other than their current legal position.
In short, they are facing a battle of perception against a country (Sweden) which seems poised to actually put the question of the legal status of filesharing to a vote, and they have no argument to forward as to why they SHOULD have those rights. Some other fantastic insights from the leader of the "Pirate Party" in Sweden as well.
