And another interesting question arises when BitTorrent is thrown into the equation. In the scenario you describe, there is no guarantee that you have transferred to any one person or group of people a complete copy of the file. Does this have any legal relevance?
"This is mostly due to requirements that competing athletes maintain good grades."
I don't know if this is representative of the country as a whole, but the high school I went to (ranked in the top 250 public schools in the nation), required passing grades in all classes in order to participate. That sounds good and all, but by passing, they mean D or higher, a D being 64% and up. That is nowhere near good enough to demonstrate proficiency in a course.
