They’ve turned away from suing pirates directly for alleged costs, because telling a little girl she owes you thousands for downloading a song is really not a good look.
So they’ve been trying to convince the ISPs to deny service to people, but the ISPs don’t want to piss off their own customers (any more than they already do with hidden fees and crappy service).
It shouldn’t be. I’m noticing that some songs just don’t exist anymore on streaming services. Don Henley’s Boys of Summer for instance, and Play With Me by Thompson Twins (the Cool World version)
Once again, it’s up to pirates to make sure that all versions of songs are archived.
Have the MPA and RIAA stopped being cruel and heartless?

Music piracy is all but dead. Video was dying but is making a comeback now that streaming is as bad as cable was.
