Individual tracks rarely cost more than $2.00, so there's no good excuse to do p2p. Plus, bad vinyl rips and poorly-made VBRs sound awful on a large soundsystem.

A couple of anti-piracy suggestions for labels:
Get Soulseek and start flooding it with dummy files of your stuff.
Maybe start some blogs with the latest tracks, slightly altered.
You could put a few sounds here and there, so they can be identified as the pirate versions, or slightly timestretch them in a few spots so they can't be mixed.
How about putting up the EP unchanged, but have the track titles switched around? They might just ignorantly post their mix with a tracklist, and look stupid.
A techno artist gets most of their profit from playing out, but that doesn't make it OK to steal tracks.
