Or maybe someone uses something other that IE on windows because they need CSS1 to render properly in their browser. The only release of IE that I've seen come close to getting CSS1 right is IE 5 for the Mac.

Looks like you and I are in about the same boat. I've been using LimeWire to get the newest episodes of Enterprise since I started my new job. I work about 80 hours per week and am NEVER home to watch it except on weekends.
I don't own a VCR and don't really see the need to buy one and I'm not ready to fork over the money for a tivo-like device yet. I really don't think that I'm stealing these shows because I pay my cable bill, I'm just not home when they air the few shows that really want to watch, so it's really not much different than recording with a VCR.
The worst part is trying to find a copy of episode 12 of Enterprise (Silent Enemy) where the color is not completely screwed up for half of the show.
The fact is that P2P television isn't new. ORGANIZED P2P television, now THAT would be something new.
It would be absolutely no harder to create a divx player for playstation, or dreamcast, or just about anything else. OK, so no one bothered
Actually, someone did bother to create a DivX player for the dreamcast. You can check it out here. And I think DCs are going for about $50 right now, which is probably less than someone would charge a non-techie person to get their XBox modded.
