My problem is not the bigness or scariness.

It's that ( 1 ) you have no idea if the file you're getting is what it claims, and ( 2 ) it's impossible to do it with even a reasonable degree of anonymity.

None of us know what laws covering old records will be passed (especially in the States), but should they pass retro-active ones, anyone that used P2P may find themselves on the wrong end of a RIAA suit.
