File Sharing Recommendations

File Sharing   Recommendations  

• Devise a system where individual Internet users can be identified regardless of the PC they are using. 

• Have a suitable and implementable penalty system to deal with illegal file sharing sites

• Create a mechanism that allows the indentified user to put credit onto their own account which can be distributed in relation to the downloaded files.

• Greater awareness campaigns to highlight the issues associated with illegal file sharing, to show that there are people who are losing out on revenue etc. Although provision should be made that enables some providers to offer files for free.

• A culture change is needed to deal with the illegal file sharing.
