First, Supnova and Bittorrent are not related any more than bugets and spreadsheets and Bill Gates. Bittorrent existed for two years prior to the arrival of Suprnova. If you are going to report, report the facts, not fiction,
compounding that Bittorrent is not illegal. The function is beautiful and evolutionary. There are still newer and faster things to come. The issue is do people want to be thieves, or do people want access. Maybe 12 dollars for a movie ticket, or 60 dollars for cable is more than they want to pay. Sell them what they want at a fair price.
