Post law v. bandwidth

Let me start by saying that a ALL p2p clients are bandwidth hogs ... gnutella clients more so than others ... ISP's are shutting down the P2P sharing of the folks that abuse the network, not due to any law. That law would not be inforcable against an ISP, only an end user who is selling what he is sharing. A good ISP will have an DS3 (OC1) at worst to the backbone ... on a DS1 (T1) you can host probably 500 or more websites ... or have roughly 200 dialup subscribers attached to the line without much trouble or network lag; however, if the same said 200 users are always connected with p2p shares its going to bog down the whole network ... just FYI a full OC3 will run about 10 grand a month ... at least here in TX, less in places like California and New York. That help?
