He uses BitTorrent for p2p. Ah, whatever, I'd be more than happy to have my day in court, I'd be a celebrity here in Toronto, LOL! Get the EFF and a friend of mine on the CCLU in on it, it'd be a gas. The MPAA and RIAA had their chance, when Napster and Scour proposed a licensing deal where people could download movies and music at a reasonably cost. Unfortunately, that cuts out the middlemen in the Marketing and Distribution side 'o things, so they're intent on preserving a model that is no longer feasible or relevant. To hell with 'em all, it's fair game now. -- HaywireMac ++ ICQ # 279518458 Registered Linux user #282046 Homepage: www.orderinchaos.org ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Mandrake HowTo's & More: http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Depend on the rabbit's foot if you will, but remember, it didn't help the rabbit. -- R.E.
