The music industry’s international trade group, IFPI, has just released a list of ten “inconvenient truths” about file sharing, and as Ars Technica’s analysis notes, it’s just kind of amateurish and embarrassing. It reads like a whiny Usenet flame, and alternates between the true-but-uninteresting and the massively unpersuasive. As with Paris Hilton at the MTV Movie Awards, I’m surprised by my own capacity for pity toward an otherwise unsympathetic object.
