Stopping Illegal File Sharing a Low Priority for DOJ?

I am not saying illegal file sharing is okay and we certainly do not advocate piracy....but....I think illegal file sharing probably should be a low priority for the Department of Justice. Am I right?

For nearly a decade, major music and film companies have lamented the loss of revenue and jobs that they blame on illegal file sharing. During that time they have lobbied lawmakers and enforcement agencies for antipiracy help. But after reading reports from the FBI and Department of Justice about efforts to protect the nation's intellectual property, I was stunned to find so few cases involving online file sharing.
