"This irritated a lot of people, not only illegal file sharers, but also the growing number of consumers who use the bittorrent technology for legitimate purposes"

Excuse me, but have you even been to the official bittorrent site? They have tons of legal content there, from big names.

FYI all the great shows over on Revision3 use bittorrent, which was the start of the "packet injection" saga for me. The simple act of downloading a Diggnation high def episode triggered something at AT&T and my service has been manipulated ever since.

A good follow-up for Ian Dumych would be to list all the legit services that use bittorrent ( NetFLicks? Hulu? ) and the resulting evil the ISPs commit as seen through Whiteshark.
