What about email? It's a P2P network the way I run it -- my computer contacts yours directly, and it _could_ be used to send copyrighted attachments.

After they are jailed, American legislators should go after the ISP's and the manufactures of computers, since they are aiding the copying of files.

Anyway in jail the music is free ;)
