You know, I'm not even sure why it is necessary for us to argue the
case for P2P - I see it's primary beneficiary as content providers (the
people that make the ISOs, movie trailers, etc... that take advantage
of technologies like BitTorrent) - why haven't any of these people
stepped up to lobby P2P's benefits? (or if they have, maybe someone
can point Henry at these lobbyists?)
