Yeah, we have similar things here too. You can also pay (something
around) $30/month to hire a law firm on retainer or some such, so you
wind up with on-demand legal advice. Never used it, so I can't say what
kind of quality you get.
It doesn't eliminate the risk of getting a really stupid jury to find
you guilty of millions of dollars of damages for copying once CD. :-)
It sounds like there's really nothing obvious others are doing to
eliminate the essential problem, but rather just a number of small
modifications to the process, many of them cultural.

You need to slow down on that - it's a very bad trend.
