Thanks to Google Alert, I've noticed my complete CD as a download just showed up on some sites in people's blogs, with a link to a download of a .RAR file for the CD.

While I encourage free advertising by individual tracks of poor quality such as on MySpace, giving away a whole CD like this is illegal.

I won't cite the file sharing services that are doing this (PM me if you want to know), but has anyone had success shutting this down, and have advice whether pursuing it is going to be worth the effort? Thanks.
