I've heard that the MPAA is cracking down on torrent sites that host trackers. Anybody have thoughts about when they'll try to crack down on individual users, like they did with napster and kazaa?

I first used BitTorrent to download Linux ISOs. I was amazed at how quickly I could download all three Red Hat CDs in just a matter of hours! Since then, I've round it to be a great way of catching up on TV shows or looking up particular episodes of the Simpsons.
