Well.  Of course it can be abused for w4r3z aswell as used for legal 
purposes.  If my ISP would block it or noticably slow it down, I would 
consider changing to a different ISP.  And I think there's still a 
difference in quality compared to things like edonkey, which are used 
exclusively for "illegal" filesharing.
