It's a moot point. It doesn't matter how much is for legitimate
use and how much is illegal. As long as some is legitimate they
shouldn't block it until they can come up with a way to just
block the illegal use.  The real problem with the whole ISP
thing is lack of competition. Prices for dialup dropped quickly
when there were dozens to choose from. We only have one cable
provider per area and no other good ISP options so far.
Guaranteed if you had 2 providers, same speeds, same
reliability, same price, one blocks BT and the other doesn't the
unblocked one would get more business from today's users. I
personally am drooling over FIOS which is available in my town
but has not reached my house yet. $50 a month for 20Mbps/5Mbps
with no blocks.
