... Although the government has properly discharged a majority of illicit pirate websites, in the preceding months, media file sharing becomes the predominant issue in the computer-world. A typical file-sharing client such as "Kazaa" encompasses millions of computers and allows them to "share" any file without constraint (Anslow, 1). Although the creators of file sharing programs claim the advantages are legitimate, their true intentions are to provide a catalyst for software pirates (1). The benefits of file-sharing do not outweigh the detrimental effects it spawns.
