The Lefsetz Newsletter.

This Santa Monica-based industry legend is the author of the e-mail 
newsletter, The Lefsetz Letter. Famous for being beholden to no one and for 
speaking his mind, Lefsetz addresses the issues that are at the core of 
this business: downloading, copy-protection, pricing and the music itself. 
Lefsetz's work can also be seen in publications as varied as Details and 
the U.K.'s Hit Sheet as well as on VH1.com and CelebrityAccess.com. Never 
boring, always entertaining, Lefsetz's insights are fueled by his stint as 
an entertainment business attorney, majordomo of Sanctuary Music's American 
division and consultancies to major labels. Copyright 2003 Robert Scott

Subject: Re-Suing Uploaders


According to my P2P expert Eric Garland, CEO of BigChampagne, all modern peer
to peer software HIDES the files of the uploaders, so they can't be seen by
the RIAA and BPI bots.  Yes, your true crime if you're busted by one of these
outfits is STUPIDITY!  Since if you only upgraded your software to the latest
version, you'd NEVER be caught.

Then again, how would the RIAA and BPI know this.  Since they've never traded
files.  Oh, the prick at the BPI told me he'd SEEN files traded, but isn't
that like SEEING two people have sex?  If you haven't DONE IT, you truly don't
know what it's about.

And, for these same people at the RIAA and BPI, the luddites who don't surf
the Web every day, I recommend the "Wired" article, "The Long Tail"
(http://wired.com/wired/archive/12.10/tail.html). If you haven't read this 
article,
you're not entitled to an opinion.  If you didn't know it EXISTED you 
should know
that you're truly ignorant and know NOTHING about the Internet, since this has
been the buzz of the techno-elite since it came out in print form last month
and appeared on the Web this week.
