For those who have not read the website, this program works by making
degraded (but still playable) copies of mp3s. The idea I assume is that
people download them from p2p instead of good copies of the songs, and are
thus put off downloading.

This is still illegal, as I don't think there is any justifaction in
saying that it's ok to share mp3s if you have done a terrible job when
encoding them. No matter what your intent in doing so is.

Even if you had a thousand people doing this, the only effect will be mild
irritation, and perhaps more people restricting who they share with.

whatever happened to the approach of just putting out
crap/anything/gibberish/annoying-messages as mp3 files with the names of
popular stealhappy tunes attached?
thats not illegal.
