Facts about file-sharing 1:56pm on 27 Nov 2009 'P2P is a demand signal from the market,' says Cory Doctorow. The music industry just refuses to listen to what P2P is telling them. Steve Jobs heard though. Then he took over the music biz's distribution whilst it was meeting the lawyers. Oops. http://bit.ly/6Aq0eX
