Could you not include *ANY* P2P then?? All of them utilize somebody else's bandwidth.

What's this got to do with Skype?? Skype is a (sorta) P2P application.

Huh? When I call a friend(with my paid for service) and he answers(on his paid for service)... where are we using someone elses bandwidth?

Nothing I do on my connection is free! I pay my bill every month!

Is my paid membership at _______ piping in the killer porn getting a free ride?

Got iTunes? There is a business that is using bandwidth too, huh?

You are 100% correct dadkins See Profile. It's the new mantra of the employees and fan boys. The ISP owns the bandwidth even when we are paying for it. I guess Comcast gives me my high speed internet for free? Last I looked I'm paying $43 dollars a month for it, and I will use skype when ever I want.
