  Fewer file sharers using P2P systems - Alternative methods such as iPod downloads gain favor
Time: 11:40 EST/16:40 GMT | News Source: Associated Press | Posted By: Erick Cordero

Use of peer-to-peer systems like Kazaa for sharing music and other files online has dropped as more Americans who use the Internet turn to such alternative methods as downloading files from a friend's iPod, a new study finds.

Though the percentage of Internet users who share files online has changed little over the past year, remaining at about 24 percent, fewer are using P2P systems. Twenty-one percent of current music downloaders say they still use P2P systems, compared with 31 percent in February 2004, according to the Pew Internet and American Life Project.
