Interesting that you have the idea that p2p is illegal, which is NOT the truth. LimeWire (one of the key developers of the Gnutella technology) is about developing a a network that is independent of central control . . . what is called "distributed computing."

Check out http://www.limewire.org/ to get a better perspective on the project.
