Are you going to think twice about using Kazaa, winMX, etc?

And why not? You can be traced if really need be.
You may be the unfortunate one to be one of the first examples in order to scare people away from using P2P apps.
One thing I don't understand is you never hear of newservers being scrutinized and they always have tons of crap on them.
never really used stuff like that (cept Napster way back when) and i don't really plan on starting... so this doesn't even pretain to me 
I think Kazaa sucks large anyways.

these bastards at the record companies have made so much money as it is...im not givin any more of mine away ... lol ... long live p2p
I don't use them in the first place because they suck. However, the RIAA is getting a little too anal these days.
They need a shitload of papers (at least here) before they can do that in the first place, so unless you have an anal ISP they don't stand much chance of getting normal users.
Nope.
I need a reason to
A) Go on a mad crazy killing spree taking out corporate moguls
B) Flee the country
THis could very well the perfect opportunity for me. Heck, it might be time to run a Supernode or DC Hub.

I dont think this is going to stop anything, a few will be punished. But just like a wild fire it will keep spreading. Always finding another way..
stuff like this usually backfires. Remember when Metallica banned people from napster? It was in the news and more and more people heard about it so they started using it. I assume more and more people will start using kazaa, morpheus...
This option for hard disks may get very popular over the next few months, eh?
Storing your data on RAID5 logical disks may also be a good idea. It's quite easy to scramble that in short order.
Cheers!

eventually what will happen, which is the same thing that happened with alot of the irc area's, is that they will shut down the keyholders, and the gatekeepers, which are the upper level management, which sends a trickle effect to all of us cutting off the sources. I would venture to say that 65% of all pirated music is done through people who know nothing more than logging into kazaa, getting raped with banner ads, and downloading a couple songs a week. If and when kazaa gets shut, as well as others, then those people are not out of the hole.
Its times like this, that i'm glad i can stock up a source pile of goods so that if and when they close the doors, i'll have basically what i need. Perhaps we can see a cost decrease on software titles that are WAY to much money, after they shut down the majors.
