Yup. I've also see a few attempts to use P2P software for legal purposes (especially Vuze (Azureus)), but most of them have fallen through over time. The few successful legal uses of P2P seem to rely on proprietary reskins of open source clients that only distribute the specific software that the company in question makes. IE, MMOG client distribution via P2P. The clients are *huge* (most new ones are at least 5 gigs, and range up to 60 gigs), so anything that saves the companies money on bandwidth is good for them.

I normally get and share Ubuntu Linux distributions legally with the plain bittorrent client.

I also like the Miro video player which can share videos with bittorrent.
