The only way these things will be clamped down on is when censorship and monitoring becomes more intense in the UK, and I think we're quite far away from that for now.

it is now law that internet service providers (isp's) store data related to people downloading habits. There was a recent case where isp's were forced to disclose those users who had downloaded a particularly fruity porn film. The isp's were then order by the courts to send letters to each of the individuals asking them to pay for said film or have a day in court.

Just because it can't be detected that something has been copied in all cases, doesn't make it morally acceptable to do it. I repeat again, people are going out of business because of it. I know people personally affected, its not funny and its not cool
