PIC: Is BitTorrent usage really all about FREE content?

There’s nothing like a good P2P comic strip to start the week off right, and this one comes from Greg Dean over at RealLife.

We’ve seen a number of BitTorrent related comics appear over the last year or so, perhaps due in large part to the way that BitTorrent Inc. has taken P2P mainstream, and also because of the way that BitTorrent has become the P2P file-sharing program of choice for the discerning pirate at large.

Greg Dean over at RealLife has just posted a new comic strip for the day that points out some of the inequities of BitTorrent usage.

The two characters in the strip download a BBC TV show off of BitTorrent and note that they really do so only because it’s FREE CONTENT and not out of some enlightened notions of availability or limited TV network distribution.

Everybody loves free content, and perhaps that’s what a large part of BitTorrent and P2P file-sharing programs really are all about.
