An interesting case today of the law bringing an illegal music sharing service to justice. It goes to show how such activities are monitored and regulated. The question often put forward is the extent to which such laws (e.g. copyright) impinge upon creativity in the context of digitisation (e.g. Lessig) and work poorly. The counter argument is that without copyright laws the music industry would break down and that this would itself harm creativity.
