Soon enough more people will begin to pick up on them I think. When torrents first appeared many said they would just remain the relam of 'nerds and piracy enthusiasts'. Usenet isn't that much more difficult to use than torrents these days as you now have indexing sites with downloadable .nzb files.

Sorry my friend I don't think it will work. You must work for the RIAA or something if you seriously belive that by eliminating P2P everything will return back to how it was in the 80s & early 90s and people will start buying overpriced cds again.
It's not going to happen. Rightly or wrongly music and films are no longer worth what they once were and it's customers willingness to pay not what the music conglomerates say there product is worth that dictates the market.
