An unlikely source of a decent solution regarding online file sharing... Springsteen Protects His New CD's Online in an Old-Fashioned Way. Bruce Springsteen (or his management, anyway) chose to keep preview copies of his latest album under lock and key, preventing the rogue previews that have plagued other bands. This is a great case of identifying the real issue - not that the album is shared, which has been happening since cassette tapes became available - but that the albums are getting out on the net before they're available in shops.
