Increase fees by $15 a month for a subsc<x>ription to Napster and $20 a month for a subsc<x>ription to NetFlix. That would be more than enough to satisfy everyone no? And if a studio refuses to release a movie then it shows that they have no interest in making money off of it and thus p2p file-sharing would not be a crime. Yes the "answer" is that easy.

Time for those industries to adopt the Napster/NetFlix model and be done with it. Use the distribution strength of the Internet not fight it.
