While we are monitoring every transmission between computers, maybe we could stem piracy by placing monitoring devices on every human neck, so that any copyrighted data does not leave the mouth via vocal chord. Some may say that is extreme. But imagine the millions of dollars being lost by lazy companies who want to distribute their music, and then charge people after they listen to it freely!

Since you are getting pleasure from those songs, it is only fair to make it impossible for you to just remember a song and hear it in your head over and over again without actually paying for it!! And it can all be wrapped into a neat package where you can license music and you can listen to it and then when you don't want it anymore, it can be burned out of your memory so you cannot mis-use your memory of it!
