ISPs are currently immune from liability under the copyright for merely transmitting copyrighted material. However, they may have an obligation to take down infringing material if notified of it by a rights holder.

ISPs should not be the ones making such decisions. A Notice-Notice system should be more clearly incorporated into the Act, where ISPs are required to do no more than notify accused customers that they have been accused of infringing copyright.

Would this be enough?

If the attitude towards file sharing could be changed to a more positive one then there are monetization opportunities. As an example, if a person shares content with people and that results in a sale then the sharer would receive some form of compensation, say credits via a redeemable code that the purchaser enters. Change the perception of the activity and recognize the potential benefits the change can represent.

Along with an attitude shift, maybe it would be useful to produce some form of legislative incentives in the coming copyright bill that would encourage content creators to develop monetization schemes?
