This "amnesty" has an air of smugness pouring off of it.

I think they've realized that tracking down millions of different IP addresses and then, in some cases, going to court to find out who they really are and then filing their subpeona is turning out to be much much harder than they originally anticipated.

We're going to track you down *wink wink BUT if you want to go ahead and plead guilty *wink wink we promise that we won't prosecute you and we'll keep all the information private and we won't sell or show it to anyone at all *wink wink.

I'm an advocate for sensible downloading, but asshat "gestures" like this make me cheer for the shitheads with 10,000+ songs who share the shit out of them.
