ISOHUNT.com Law suit

if you are one of the million P2P users out there, then you will have probably heard of ISOHUNT.com it is a website that contains many legitimate sources of Torrents, from anything like software to movies. In other terms it is known as piracy.
I personally don't believe that downloading torrents illegal, because somebody had to buy the original product in the first place as well as the fact that people only share it.
Recently, the Movie Corporation of America is working hard to try and sue iso-hunt.com, iso-hunt is fighting back by claiming that they are merely sharing what they already own, and we are saying that companies do not have their rights to control what we share. It is not reasonable for a company to want to own a product after it's been sold. It is not like we are stealing their brand-name, if anything you would be promoting and advertising them.
I think this is important information because, let's face it, a lot of people download torrents and those torrents have become a form of media on their own, it is already too big a fad to be controlled by companies, there are way too many torrent sites as well as ways of sharing information. So there is no real way they can stop us, and if you can't beat them, join them.
Personally I believe once a media form has begun it cannot be destroyed, it can only be obsolete so they can only pray that in the future there'll be something that will trump torrents.
