The majority of my p2p use is trying to find music from deleted soundtracks, tracks from obscure international acts that my local music store has trouble importing (9 months and counting on one particular European cd!) and video files such as interviews or specials that people have recorded from international tv and digitised, that I am unable to watch locally, and therefore not at all. I would much prefer to purchase my elusive soundtracks and international cds, and watch those specials on my local tv network, but the fact is that I can't - because the music companies and tv networks don't consider what I want to watch and listen to important enough to provide copies of. They would rather I buy the latest Britney Spears cd and watch their silly new reality programs so that they don't have to cater for an extended audience.
