yes, the story is old but the venue is new. it helps to remember that what's been around us p2p veterans awhile may be fresh to millions of people trying it out or hearing about it for the first time.

so the news in the p2p community is when fortune magazine (an old aol time warner property) does a fairly balanced piece on the subject and does it in the midst of this hysterical firestorm brought on by the congress and the riaa/mpaa...there's nothing more establishment than fortune and nobody more protective of copyrights than aol time warner. so as well written and laid out as the article is, it's not the content that i find interesting but the place – and the reason why - it appears. why fortune and why now?

hi tg, those avatars are moving faster than hellys!
