Ohio State bans all Peer-to-Peer applications: other universities to follow?

Ohio State, which was recently named one of the top 25 colleges with the most cases of copyright infringement, has decided to take action by banning all forms of Peer-To-Peer file sharing software. While this will prevent most people from pirating media on their campus it also prevents the legitimate uses of P2P software, a risk that none of the other universities on the top 25 list have yet to take. Other schools are watching though to see what effect it has on its students. A positive result could lead more schools into making a ban on their campuses as well. A lot of people cite the defense that legitimate P2P must be protected, but how many people actually use this software for legal purposes? Not many. There are sites like LegalTorrents or many Linux distributions that use bit torrent as a means of distributing their install discs. That being said I think that more universities will follow suit in the near future with a blanket ban.
