		But for whatever reason, Cohen has so far been spared the fate of Napster and Grokster, and has yet to be sued by record labels or movie studios.
		Bram responds with informative answers and I suggest you read the whole article, but I’m still disappointed in the lack of planning for the interview that Levy did.

	Slashdot \| Bram Cohen's Response to Microsoft's Avalanche
		Having read Bram's comments, what he seems to be responding to is the way (he says) they misunderstood and misrepresented BT; which strikes me as a quite legitimate response.
		Bram isn't randomly attacking them for having a vaporware product, he is specifically pointing out the many mistakes that they make in their paper, where they compare Bittorrent to their proposed algorithms.
		Bram may be right about Microsoft's paper, but he would have had more credibility if he had taken the high road.

		Moreover, being right might not be enough to keep Cohen and BitTorrent clear of the working end of a lawsuit.
