520			_aThe article presents an analysis of the impact of peer-to-peer (P2P) computer file sharing on the music and motion picture industries. The drop in sales of compact discs (CDs) and DVD-Video discs after 1999 has been largely attributed to internet piracy facilitated by P2P technology. Information on how industry efforts to intensify copyright law enforcement have had a positive effect on the stock prices of the firms involved is presented. The question of whether the pre-P2P entertainment media business model has been rendered obsolete is also addressed.
