Citigroup to Pay $2.65 Billion in Deal With WorldCom Investors. I’m not holding my breath for a big payment. 😉

Financial services giant Citigroup has agreed to pay $2.65 billion to settle class-action suits brought by investors who bought WorldCom Inc. securities before the telecommunications company’s bankruptcy filing in 2002.

Finally gave BitTorrent a try over the weekend. Cool concept, and I didn’t mind at all that it took half a day to download each of the shows (300-400Mb) over a DSL connection. Had to get Windows Media Player 9 to view 24 (VCD-FFN) and the XviD codec to view Gilmore Girls (HDTV-LOL). Donated some bucks to the author, but it made me think that the television networks could be missing out on the same opportunity that the music-recording industry had.
