Well, according to the article, 18% of Australians downloaded an average of 30 songs a month. So given a population of 21 million, that means about 4 million people download music. @ 30 songs a month, every month, that's 1.3 billion songs.
How is this any different than the police spying on their own citizens (aka NYC Police Department). It's different because he is a private citizen, and he has the right to publish, or NOT PUBLISH his information. I'm sure that Winston would be quite proud of a person like you, I mean, a thought crime has happened, and by not turning over the information, he's supporting 'them'.
The issue here is that the federal government abusing it's power to imprison someone who disagrees with the bush regime's 'control of the media'.
