TGPs are fine -- the problem is with the TGP webmaster. If they give away too much, it causes a problem. You sell the sizzle, not the steak. Don't blame TGPs. Blame inept/boobnoob webmasters. Giving stuff away free to sell stuff is a time honored tradition.

Anyway, I think P2P did more damage than TGPs.

Oh, no doubt, TGPs are terrible for business.

Free pics (and now movies) on usenet were bad for business before those.

I would love to see nary a nipple on the net without someone having to pay for it, but that isn't going to happen. So you have to figure out how to live with it, deal with it, and ideally use it to your own advantage.

Free market can be a bitch. If you open up a store in the mall selling widgets and it does well, there'll be 3 more stores there within a matter of months selling widgets as well, plus a bunch of freestanding booths in the middle of the mall selling widget knock offs.
