Much like other P2P projects, I think every major city in the world
should setup a downtown office.
Where you can go in and get any Torrent or Application available on the
Internet.
What would you rather do?
Pick up some free CDs/DVDs or saturate your Internet and downloading 1TB
of DVDs?
Perhaps better is an unoffical MEETUP group...
Only thing you need ia a catchy name...and some basic rules
