Thank you MPAA for the University Toolkit

,----[ Quote ]
| The MPAA toolkit is a series of programs designed to monitor a network for 
| various protocols, that runs on ubuntu Linux. The download and install at 
| this time is not limited to only .edu domains, although that is what it was 
| intended for, so this tool just became a network monitors dream tool. If you 
| want to monitor any network, DSL, Cable, anything this tool is for you.

The MPAA/RIAA negotiate like some kind of independent government. At least they
don't just kill the medium (and DRM is dying).
