Does this mean there will be a pirate ship anchoring off the coast of Germany any time soon?
Hehe, I wish. But don't get too excited, copyright violation is still punishable under german criminal. If you share many many files, a few thousand maybe, I suppose they will still come after you. It's just that they don't want to go though all the administrative proceedings and red tape for petty cases of sharing 10 or so files, just to do the music industry a favour and then dismiss the case, which propably costs the tax-payer far more than what the actual damage is worth. They're hired as public servants after all, not as music industry's servants...
