I've got a few of those already. Hell, the first one listed 13 different episodes in it and the second listed 17.

As long as you stopped having it/sharing it, send Comcast a letter saying you did so.

just email them and tell them that you fixed the problem. Nothing more. The issue will be resolved.

Here's what I don't get - The people that make TV shows have issue with people downloading their shows, for whatever reason they have. So, this forces people to get something like Tivo (sure there's still VCRs, but hell, I use mine and it looks like ass on my TV) instead. OF course, even this is bad, since it allows people to *gasp* skip commercials. So, WTF (WTS?) do they want people to do if they can't sit their ass in front of a TV at a scheduled time one day?

? You must upload at least a little of the file when downloading it, unless for some reason there are no peers available to connect to.

Yes, I'm guilty of not taping a show because my fiance took the tape out and downloading it instead. So I downloaded it so I could watch it.
