sharing of mp3s is unlikely ever to stop. I was thinking the other day about how me and my friends would get mp3s before Napster. I used to spend ages searching the ftps sites on Audio Galaxy trying to find a non ratio one that I could eventually get into only to find that they didn't have what I was looking for after all. This all changed when Napster popped up, it just made it easier.
The ftp/irc method of getting mp3s will always be here and people will always be finding ways to make it easier to share...
