I'm not trying to make it sound like downloading pirated movies from BitTorrent is 'right.'

Fact is....I know a lot of people who use a torrent application to send large files, and it isn't right for them if their ISP shuts them down.

Comcast would be better served to enforce the downloading limit they set....because by shutting down torrents...or cutting back the users who download that way....will only drive the geeks to find a better way to share illegal files.

5 years ago torrents were unheard of. 5 years from now there'll probably be a better system.
