This is your opinion. Im am not here because of any filesharing. I decided to 
provide bandwith when I read whats going on in the EU last week. I am 
interested in anonymized http to protect the freedom of information. I even 
think it is abuse of tor to use it for P2P. There is a project existing for 
P2P fans called I2P. Maybe you are sitting at the wong horse here.

My question to other members of tor who have tor servers running: why do you 
do this. What is your intention to give away bandwith for no money?
