First of all, i'd like to commend Joey for making a constructive proposition on what he feels so strongly about.
However, I think there are some fundermental issues he may not put into consideration.
1. Sites that enable piracy are really not the cause of piracy. They just solve a problem millions of people prove they have' the need to share music. Computers/the internet just made what we have been doing much easier. You are trying to change human nature. When I met cassette tapes, music was shared. When we start moving bits from one human brain to another, music will still be shared that way.
I am launching my music startup in a few weeks and I will post about our way of working aroud this issue in a way copyright holders and creators can benefit from their works.
I personally think it is futile to stop what is inherent about music and humans. Sharing.
