I read the article, and I'm fascinated that such an informed piece
still missed the big story. As far as the media is concerned, WinMX
was a network run little (if at all) different from Grokster, by guys
who encouraged piracy - and now it too has fallen. I've seen no
mention of WinMX being a network initially promulgated by guys who
don't even encourage you to use their software (let alone for piracy),
and not a word about the fact that rumors of its shutdown are
exagerrated. Has anybody seen a media report aknowledging that WinMX
users are still on-line and sharing?
