Since the mid-90’s, the music industry has been fighting a battle against illegal downloads – a war that it can never win. This is on the backdrop of several decades of controlling the distribution of music by ensuring pirate copies weren’t being sold at one or two notorious markets. Those halcyon days are long gone, and the ‘market stalls’ of today spread out across the globe to the most remote parts of eastern Europe and southern Asia. Although most people saw this coming, the music industry as a whole, in particular the major record labels, were slow to react, and before long found themselves armed with magnifying glasses when they should have had search engines instead
