I think what they are saying is just part of a picture. Another very important piece is how much are those casual convenience pirates are willing to pay, and how much it will ultimately be when aggregated. Will the music industry grow because the better access to music will boost the sales, or will it shrink because equally good access to reasonably good music for free exists? That, in my opinion, is a very important piece of puzzle.
