Audiogalaxy was doomed to failure from the start though. It used their website to show which files were available. In essence it ended up becoming a warez site.
Dear DirectTV Inc,
I would like to request that you stop sending signals onto my property. If you do not I will be forced to decrypt them and analyze them in the interest on nation security. We *are* supposed to stay extra vigilant. Thank You
Spammers want to stay in buisness. They'll think of something. Be it going overseas or doing something else to hide their identity they'll find a way to send crap to you.
It's a good way to cut down on the smaller spamming companies but the hardcore guys want to keep the cash rolling in.
On the otherhand, companies that advertise through spammers might not want to get fined to hell so it may be effective.
The RIAA(and apparently Microsoft as influenced by them) thinks that if they can stop digital to digital recording that all P2P networks will just die and piracy will cease to exist.
If they manage to put a stranglehold on digital copying then we'll settle for analog. I know that I would.
And to be honest, by the time that things get as bad as the article says, nobody will want to rip any of the crap thats gonna be put out.
In a related story Buffalo Technology's main offices were raided. They are charged with supplying terrorists with technology to access goatse more quickly.

The Falun Gong cult allegedly hijacked a satelite feed for a Chinese news station to broadcast some information. However its completely unrelated.
