Post Scriptum.

They can't shut down p2p networks.....because file sharing isn't illegal. But file sharing corpywrited material is. For all they know I might be sharing a thesis on "Tweaking your computer" on a *.txt file and as long as I give my consent that this can be legally distributed it's not illegal.

And since kazaa is mainly a file sharing peer to peer network then it will next to impossible to close it down.......same with Direct Connect.

what can be done in kazaa is simply this........."cencoring" (basically banning files with those names) words like Madonna, Metallica etc. like they did with napster (although you could go around that by spelling madonna like this m4donn4 , butthere were too many combinations to find anything).
