The easiest way would be to monitor ports and protocols, but that would only tell them that you where using Gnutilla or Bittorrent on a default port, not what you where downloading. It could be the latest Linux distro or MP3s of the first Edison-Wax-Cylinder-Recordings, right? to know what you where downloading, they would have to do deep packet inspection on most of what passes through their hubs, right? which i understand slows all the data by between 30 and 80% according to the Australians. And you can still beat it with encryption. So. Question: Is reducing the speed of the general internet by between 30 and 80% worth it inorder to net a lucrative haul of first-time offenders that don't have the sense to encrypt their traffic, and likely have relatively small collections pirate swag? Because in my experience, the people that have enough music to fill up a large ipod have all picked up some basic data-smarts and some little tips and tricks on the way.

If an ISP cuts off someone's service based on flimsy evidence, the ISP is liable for a lawsuit and possibly an investigation by the FCC. The ISP's only function is to provide a service, NOT police the network. That's why the DMCA included provisions to protect the ISP. I see this as an RIAA plan to shift lawsuits towards the ISP’s.

What I have read about the methods used to collect their data is far from solid. The key ( appear to be uploading music illegally) statement just follows what is most likely the truth, they are guessing. So if your ISP turns against you, turn them off!
