Re: ....

Most people do not use those.
People never forgot, they just do not use them nearly as much as p2p apps.

Email can be used to send copyrighted materials to others, but thats not blocked. If 1,000,000 people did that then the ISP would probably end up scanning and blocking mp3 files?

ISPs should not block anything. I can see why they may wish to cap p2p but blocking is not there thing. ISPs are not cops and should not be.

Because a normal person doesn't have the knowledge nor the patience to learn. Especially when you can just download install and start getting stuff with P2P apps
