probably because sites like Rapidshare and Zshare are meant for *file* sharing and backing up of files, not neccessarily MUSIC sharing. So, technically, there's nothing illegal about it. Kinda like how head shops sell Bongs and call it "Tobacco supplies", The Bong is legal, but filling it with Marijuana isn't.

because there's millions of people like you, which can translate into millions of people who aren't buying records.

no, but it's still a crime. Why can't you guys see that?
