Note that increasingly legal movie distribution, at least in the UK, is now being made using P2P as this reduces the load on the movie or TV companies' servers. Personally I find BT useful in that it allows me to pull down TV shows that I miss for some reason or other and have forgotten to capture for myself. If you want to dabble have a look at BitTornado, if more series then something like Azureus or µTorrent. -- Mike Maltby

That's your prerogative, Mow, entirely.

Whenever I find myself contemplating something illegal, I puff a bit more on
my pipe and contemplate further... That tends to distract me from action before my dog even knows what's up... -- Gary S.
