The RCMP drop their arms before the heavy hunting illegal copying of music files
“Today it is so easy to copy. Everybody was taken by surprise and we do not know how to stop it, ”said the head of federal investigations and issues stolen copyrights for the RCMP.
So that in the United States, a surfer was sentenced by the courts in early October, a fine of $ 220,000 for having copied illegally 24 songs, the pirates of music on this side of the border have still no reason to worry.
Indeed, given the heavy hunting illegal copying of music files for personal purposes, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) had given up for several months, was told Le Devoir. It now closes its eyes to this type of criminal behavior.
"Piracy [music over the Internet or other media] for personal use is no longer targeted,“ said in an interview Christmas Hilaire, head of the federal investigations and questions of copyright theft 'author to the RCMP. ”Today it is so easy to copy. Everybody was taken by surprise and we do not know how to stop it. “
In this context, where the illegal downloading of music, usually in MP3 format, has become an overall pattern in society, especially among young Internet users, the RCMP says that the tracking of this type of thief does not appear in ” [his] priorities. “ ”It addresses mainly to crimes against intellectual property, which have an impact on the health and safety of consumers [medicines, electrical appliances, and so on.], But also those related to organized crime, said Hilaire. Our plate is pretty full with that, and unfortunately, the small, it does not have time to deal with them. “
That is not the case in the United States where, on October 3, Jammie Thomas, 30, was found guilty of illegal downloading by a court in Duluth, Minnesota. The prosecution was brought by the American Association of the recording industry (RIAA), which represents among others of companies like BMG, Capitol, Warner and Sony. The young woman, forced to pay 9250 $ musical gleaned on the Internet through software for sharing music files, brought the case on appeal.
Still, the inertia of the RCMP before this type of crime may be due to the low financial impact that this sport ‘lounge and room teenager seems to have on the music industry and the music in Canada. Indeed, according to the latest data from Statistics Canada on the music industry, despite the fall in sales linked to the proliferation of illegal downloads, the revenue and profits of this section of the economy were ”relatively high“ in 2005, indicated yesterday the federal percentage.
Indeed, in broad terms, record producers, publishers and recording studios reported operating revenue of 815 million dollars, ”which translates into an operating margin of 14% overall , “says the document titled recording and music publishing, 2005.
Although purchases of music have on the whole declined by 3% between 2003 and 2005, the sale of CDs and music files acquired legally through the Internet, which accounted for 3.9% of national sales in 2005 , has nevertheless allowed the industry to reap as much as 575 million, 18 million less than the previous year. However, the development of new distribution channels and delivery has stimulated markets digital, write the authors of this survey, which helped to increase the profit margin ”of the industry.
This equation is explained not only by the reduction in inventory and distribution costs, but also by less considerable returns of products, said Statistics Canada.
The struggle continues
Despite this portrait, the Quebec Association of the recording industry, entertainment and video (ADISQ), it has not been possible to contact yesterday, continues its battle against piracy. According to this organization, ’ownership without the right music [is] a hindrance to the development of music, “he says in a document that summarizes its outreach program, called” When one loves music for real , copying, no thanks. “
And this call seems to have been heard. Indeed, despite a general decline in sales of music, one created by Canadian artists has experienced a small growth of 3.3% in 2005, for a total bill of 123 million, up four million compared with 2003. More than 30% of these recordings came from Quebec.

en nú er ég að velta vöngum yfir hvað það gæti hugsanlega verið gæti það haft eitthvað með samvinnu milli lögreglu og netþjónustufyrirtækja um að ritskoða internetið? leitað að “digital signatures” o.s.f. ;] það væri sniðugt að reyna að smygla þannig prógrammi inn undir öðru yfirskyni ;] skilst þessu sama sé beitt gegn thepiratebay.org í Svíþjóð, ekki er ég að fara að kvarta undan auðveldu aðgengi að höfundarréttarvörðu efni, ef það þá fyrirfinnst eitthversstaðar á netinu hehe
