Add your response to RIAA Body Count - August 22: Response from: Alcoholism In the past 6 months, the war against P2P has reached a critical stage. Courts from around the world (including the United States, Spain, Taiwan and Australia) have united in their decisions against P2P operators and ordered some of the most popular to shut down their operations. It appears that as quickly as P2P has spread since Napster , the closing down of operators is now happening just as fast.
