Ok, let's say that when P2P (peer to peer) programs first came out all the record companies said "download all our stuff for free," instead of taking legal action. Well that's what's happening now. BitTorrent, a P2P site that accounts for 40 to 60 percent of all internet traffic is now offering music downloads from top artists as well as planning to offer movies.

During the past week BitTorrent has posted a short documentary from Death Cab for Cutie, as well as songs and videos from other popular acts, including the Postal Service, Hot Hot Heat, the Shins, Iron & Wine and Band of Horses. And they have just announced content from Fall Out Boy is coming too.
