iinet has made a good point. They are not the police. The Police have better things to do with their time. It cant stop it, but they can stop the guys who are profiting from it directly. These are the people who are selling the rubbish at the local markets and having a good laugh at your expense. Don’t buy it from them and tell the cops, these are the real pirates (not the cops…Umm then again). These are the people ripping the artists and studios off not an ISP.

Movie studios would be better off utilising their time in finding ways to deliver the products the consumers want in the formats the consumer wants instead of attacking an ISP. Seriously, if they had movies\tv series available here for legal download for a normal (not ridiculous) fee, many people would pay it. I know i would.

Not true; format shifting for personal use has been legal in Australia since 2006. Copy protection circumvention is illegal, but not an issue in VHS-to-DVD format shifts.

So every ISP is to drop all of there customers that are torrenting? So there will be about 5 ppl left with internet in Australia?
