Why do people keep doing it in Japan if there are many times when people have been arrested for it? Was the net fame or whatever really worth it, if the country DOES pursue action against people who do?

The mentally that "Oh, they got them, but it'll never be me" is another good reason. Even when the RIAA got down on some people, others still went on to upload music, thinking they'll never be caught.

Man, theyre really cracking down on this stuff huh?
It almost makes me think that it'll all be worth it in the end. Though, my bet is that it was the HP movie and maybe Arrietty that really got the police's attenion  .

The NPA said Friday that the arrests were the result of its first fully nationwide exposure of file-sharing software users.
Authorities across the nation used a P2P software monitoring system to detect users of file-sharing applications, Fuji TV reported. The operation, which took place Nov 28-30, is the third such sweep that Japanese police have performed since January 2011. |

In other news, 30 people don't know how to use peer proxies.
Because 30 people isn't even a drop in the bucket. |

Thats heavy hit. Alot lives that just got ruined. Alot those people are kids. To thoughs who may not be aware, but Japenese law enforcement is actually pretty brutal on those who go to jail. It also leaves a stigma on them too.
