Sorry I don't do two-part questions.
Hans is right.
The copyright laws need to be updated in some manner (I am not claiming to know how or what, but author rights must be protected) and they need to be better synced up world-wide which Format C: says above (and which will never happen universally). This also ties in to distribution rights which must become global and not regional.
And yes governments must be able to stop pirate sites that are flagrantly violating applicable copyright laws.
