Since the court ruling in the US in September making Grokster illegal, The Register reports that peer-2-peer programmes are in trouble. The US Supreme Court said that P2P companies are in breach of existing laws by encouraging the infringement of copyright. Which means that any US-based P2P software is in for a fight with the RIAA - and will lose. I don't know why they don't move out of the States and run their programmes under new names in obscure places. The death of P2P? Maybe some of the larger ones. But the show will go on (sic).
