More P2P shut-downs

Updating my "P2P services go 'legit'" item on Wednesday, there has been further bad news from a file-sharer's perspective. WinMX ceased operating, Reuters reported Thursday, and The Register reports that eDonkey closed its doors. Meanwhile, four of Israel's most popular P2P services were shut down this week, Israel's Nana Net-Life magazine reported. [Thanks to BNA Internet Law for pointing out the Nana story.] It'll be very interesting to see what phoenix rises from these ashes, since - judging from past digital-music developments - workarounds are inevitable.
