P2P-Zone - View Single Post - YESSS! According to Microsoft p2p is undefeatable

The conclusions of this study will be moot when major ISPs start limiting transfers on a large scale. You can't do much file trading when your 5GB cap is looming and it's only the 10th.

/edit/
I also don't see why anyone from MS would be saying this, just because in a (theoretically) locked down environment like Palladium, opportunities for main stream P2P will be small. There will always be users who will do whatever they want no matter what restrictions are placed on them, but this would not be an activity involving hundreds of millions like it is today.
