Regardless of your take on what's morally acceptable or not, filesharing will perpetuate in some form until musicians stop contributing to this type of database as a way of immortalizing their rarest releases. Anyone in the business of selling consumables online is responsible for keeping their wares inaccessible to pirates. It might take constant policing but the hottest porn stars in particular popular niches know the score and employ watchdogs. Authorities also plant torrents that clue them into potential copyright infringement (sting operations).This particular part (musicians planting their rare stuff) of the what.com website was obviously only a small percentage of the total purpose, but it's like pay to play for a live musician. If one can't generate interest through legitimate moneymaking means they will offer their wares for free, however they can disseminate them, or purchase the means by which they can be noticed.
Pirates will always be scalliwags, cheapskates, and be seen as morally bankrupt for their raping of the art form and its creatives.
