Thanks for agreeing to mail this around....

I am a producer for CNBC working on a tv magazine story about the legal,
technical, cultural and political issues swirling around what some call
"file sharing" and others call "digital piracy." I'm working with CNBC
Correspondent David Faber.

I'm looking to interview someone who does quite a bit of file sharing.
Preferably someone in a college in the Northeast.

I'm not looking to cast this person as some kind of pirate stealing from
poor songwriters. If you're on this mailing list you  know that the issue is
much more complex than that. My goal is to show how widespread it is and to
discuss ideas on how to resolve the issue.

Please feel free to ask me any questions. We're looking to shoot this story
in the next two weeks.

Thank you,


Steve McCarthy
