Default Microsoft Mad Scramble To Falter Good Use For P2P Software

As most of us know the SP2 Final was released recently. In an effort to promote non copyright violating P2P networks a group of Techies created a Torrent (Used with the popular Protocol:Bittorrent) to distribute SP2 and take a load off of M$'s servers. Very fast speeds were reported from this trial.
Unfortunately M$ smacked a lawsuit down on the website. The website removed the Torrent.
