$75,000 – Another Epic Waste of Money.

Whatever happened to commonsense and peoples BS meters.

The CopySense Appliance is the only solution that can identify and block illegal sharing of copyrighted files while allowing other legitimate P2P uses to continue.Audible Magic via TorrentFreak

So what does the $75,000 network appliance get you, well nothing other than another piece of useless technology attached to your network. But, it does mean you can when sued go "Look mister we have a CopySense Appliance, that couldn't have possibly been us" Net result the lawsuit goes away.

Is it worth that much? Short answer is no. Commonsense has shown that the RIAA and MPAA are still stuggling with the modern world and have yet to make any allegations really stick with any great amount of evidence and justification, other than they need a new revenue stream because their main streams of cash, are rapidly drying up because no body is going pay the exorbitant fees they want.

Still I wouldn't mind being the company that is selling this stuff to what seems like market that just keeps righting blank cheques to the companies who say they can solve their every problem. Another Epic Fail.
