Publishers and media companies are fighting back, at least a few years ago there was a news story of a school girl having a police visit after downloading some tunes and sharing with friends and her parents ended up with a massive fine, no her friends didn't grass it was all detected through the internet networks by the media co, this week I came into some information about a new software that will be scanning the whole internet not just P2P Donkey - Kazaa Networks etc, I guess this technology isn't cheap but with time hell maybe everyone will have it! If anyone wants to pass this on to thier favorite publisher feel free. Im not a technology Exp so I shall just post an excerpt from a stockmarket company release.
AUTONOMY'S VIRAGE AUTOMATES COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT DETECTION FOR ONLINE VIDEO Virage ACID Offers The Only Fast, Accurate And Scalable Defense Against Internet Piracy Cambridge, UK and San Francisco, Calif. - April 5th, 2007 - Autonomy Corporation plc (LSE: AU. or AU.L), a global leader in infrastructure software for the enterprise and proponent of Meaning-Based Computing, today announced the release of Virage Automatic Copyright Infringement Detection (ACID). Virage ACID enables copyright owners such as broadcasters, production houses and publishers to maintain control of their Intellectual Property by automating the detection of illegal distribution of copyrighted material on the Internet. Using Autonomy's unique Meaning-Based Computing, which includes patented image and audio analysis technology, and powered by the Intelligent Data Operating Layer (IDOL), ACID offers a fast, accurate and scalable method of detecting breaches of copyright, wherever they are located and whatever format they are in. By automatically detecting any rich media that infringes an organization's copyright, Virage ACID eliminates the need for content owners to spend hours trawling through video sharing websites, or manually scanning p2p file contents. In addition, Virage ACID's functions are particularly valuable for organizations that see Internet distribution of user-generated or hosted content as critical to their business model. Instead of relying on copyright owners to alert hosting agents to offending material (a legally contentious strategy), content hosts can take a more proactive approach by scanning material as it is uploaded and quarantining content that may be breaching copyright. This real-time approach can deliver extensive return on investment as hosts can avoid potentially expensive legal disputes by removing risky content before it is posted. In addition, this is done without frustrating users with the lengthy delays between uploading and posting that more manual processes inevitably cause. Unlike many Digital Rights Management solutions, the system does not rely on watermarking and so is not undermined by random noise or format and codec changes. Furthermore, Virage's ACID module is not restricted to one form of data. Being totally independent of media format, ACID can not only detect whether distributed video infringes copyright, but also whether audio content ripped from a copyrighted video or audio track that is overlaid on legitimate video has been uploaded. "With the explosion in interest around video sharing and distribution over the Internet, copyright owners must act rapidly to stay ahead of the rising tide of illegal copies of their content. With Autonomy's Meaning Based Computing technology and image and audio analysis expertise, ACID is a powerful solution to help media companies protect their assets, and video sharing websites to reduce their risk, while reducing administrative overheads for both," commented Dr. Mike Lynch, CEO, Autonomy. About Virage Virage, a division of Autonomy Systems, is a world-leader in Rich Media Management software and intelligent video analytics. Virage has developed the world's first technology to automatically capture, encode and index television, video and audio content from any source, including live feeds and archived data. By automatically generating a comprehensive range of metadata, including keyframes, face and speaker recognition and transcription of the audio stream, Virage ensures all rich media is fully searchable and accessible by any user.

A very bad idea: link <- start of details about Autonony and "meaning based computing" technology.
1) take "offensive" material and scan into database 2) set this tool to trawl for offensive material 3) distribute the filters of "offensive" content to ISPs to prevent them from hosting any "offensive" material. Sounds good. But take a Muslim or Christian fundamentalist notion of "offensive" and apply. Kind of depends on what "you" think is offensive doesn't it. Hope you enjoyed watching provocatively clothed women or unhealthy moral content on the news and network TV. This tool could filter that content and alert the authorities to repeat offenses for "violations". No more bacon double cheeseburgers or football games? On the good side, anyone could make their own videos of magic stuff and expose all they want. This technology does not save us from the issue that started the thread, just blatant copyright infringement when the copy has been scanned and registered and the coded filters distributed. So now all they need to do is scan the stuff they find "offensive" and demand the providers maintain the filters. Good going. not.
...to all the coins I've dropped here

DRM is going down the pan. People don't want the restriction of only playing media on one platform. Things like P2P or posting direct copies of other people's videos are obviously legally wrong, but posting tutorials loosely based on various magical effects is only ethically wrong, and that only according to traditional magician's ethics. It's nothing to do with the law.
