I agree, p2p is based on the old cliche, "I'll scratch your back if you scratch mine"

I can tell you now that I would never have discovered numerous artists that I now love had it not been for file sharing. As much as some artists like to think sharing is evil, I'm an honest consumer, I buy what I like. (better than having junk emails) File sharing is fun, but I also think that despite our arguments there will still be some who wont share which is why I don't want to concern myself with them. If there were an option that allowed me to block my files from people who don't share a single file I might select it but I also think people have their reasons. Having a free program like this one makes it free to everyone, including freeloaders for good or for bad. I certainly think its worth the sacrifice of having one or two freeloaders downloading from me and 10 honest sharers each day than having no sharing at all.

As my parents taught me, "Which is better, half a slurpee, or no slurpee at all?"
