Look, let's just get it over with... If you download a copyrighted song, the penalty should be to put that person to death, confiscate all his or her property, then sell the person's entire family into indentured servitude for not less than 8 generations... What's the problem?

I'm amazed that they are only going after downloading music from computers. What about people who sell CD's at garage sales or flea markets? Or another trend: Used book stores or (again) people who sell books at garage sales. All of this is copyrighted material and artists don't get paid of their material is sold second hand.

absolutely! My only problem with your suggestion is that it may not be tough enough. ;)
