Supreme Court decision in June that P2P networks are responsible for illegal downloads that take place using their software. Slyck attributes WinMX’s demise to a business decision, but others link it to the U.S. Web site Slyck News reported that eDonkey’s offices are indeed open for business. The P2P network moved its offices from New York to New Jersey a year ago and this migration looks to be the source of some of the confusion.
