Thumbs down P2P Is Only Worthwhile For mp3

I have seen a few arguements in this forum that P2P has value for the public beyond sharing mp3's and software (both of which infringe on copyrights). To that I say, nope sorry not for the general public. Beyond that, there really is not anything we want to share that we cannot do in far more efficient ways. If the RIAA suceeds in its assult on the swappers, it is pretty much over for P2P programs. I think it absolutely stinks that the RIAA is being allowed to grab names of file sharers from ISPs and prosecute them for sharing music. I guess eminem's next porshe is a lot more imprtant than your right to privacy or to share what belongs to you. More correctly, I guess the CEO's of the record labels must have their "right" to multi million dollar salaries protected. Whatever I think about all of it, though I do know one thing; I am done with file sharing. I know the odds of actually being caught are very small, but I am not willing to open myself to legal problems for a few lousy files.
