According to a Pew survey, 16% of people say they download music and video via P2P, while 17% say they've used P2P in the past. Given that file sharing activity continues to rise, there seems to be a fair number of people not fessing up. 20% get their downloadslinks from email and IM, and 15% from someone else's MP3 player. Both of those sources also contain a lot of illegitimate content. P2P only accounts for 31% of illegal downloads.

Apple, consumer electronics makers, and software developers have a legitimate concern that the entertainment business will come gunning for them after RIAA and MPAA are done suing and regulating P2P. ... Kids, make sure you hide those classic iPods before they're recalled. They'll be priceless a few years from now.
