Never mind - I withdraw and concede all arguments to everyone. Having just seen the not-so-veiled reference towards “older Members” and P2P in the Pit, I’m no longer in this thread. I only thought it was intended to discuss legal uses for P2P - and if even discussing legal uses, or legalities themselves is objectionable, then I’m not going to risk offense by possibly breaking the Rules. ---

Kazaa can also legitimately be used as a music player, AFAIK. That’s not to say the music you’re playing on it is legitimate, of course. ---
