Music piracy - ten inconvenient truths

I liked these ones:

1. Pirate Bay, one of the flagships of the anti-copyright movement, makes thousands of euros from advertising on its site, while maintaining its anti-establishment “free music” rhetoric.

And how much does it costs The Pirate Bay to maintain the website? Thousands of Euros perhaps?

6. ISPs often advertise music as a benefit of signing up to their service, but facilitate the illegal swapping on copyright infringing music on a grand scale.

LET'S BAN ISPs!!!!!!!!!

8. Piracy is not caused by poverty. Professor Zhang of Nanjing University found the Chinese citizens who bought pirate products were mainly middle or higher income earners.

Could it be because that only middle and higher earners can afford broadband?
