The Spanish Minister of Culture, César Antonio Molina, in the newspaper Público: "I have nothing against those who want to distribute their products for free. But it must be taken into account that the development of both software and cultural products has costs of creation, production and distribution. Those who work on it have as much right to earn a living as the rest of us (...) P2P is legal and a very useful tool with multiple applications. But it is not acceptable for protected products to be slashed illegally and massively because of the damage to the cultural industry and the elimination of jobs."
