A month ago I was having trouble with bit torrent so I called COX and asked their tech if COX was blocking it. The tech didn't know what bit torrent was!
It was my understanding that the Media companies, unable to go after any single entity, like for example, Napster,... was going after the search engines that provide the links. Maybe they are also threatening ISPs as well.

My wife was telling me today that one of her co-workers got a cease and desist letter from our cable provider (Adelphia) for Bit Torrenting TV shows. This was the first I had heard of this and was wondering if you guys had seen this before? I could understand it if he was downloading pirated software, movies, and/or music but I was still under the impression that TV shows were free game since they are broadcast for free over the airwaves. -- Brian
