OK, lets focus on the wording of that letter and how bittorrent works.
From my understanding, even IF you weren't uploading at all and accepting your download on the sub 2K speed, the other clients out there don't know that. All they know is that you are another member of the swarm and as a member of the storm can be guaranteed to have at least some of the data.
They have evidence you were a member of a swarm in a protocol designed to facilitate uploading as much as much as downloading with the focus of the swarm being the rights protected data.
At that stage, the burden of proof is likely to fall squarely on your shoulders to prove you weren't uploading (remember they don't know which other members of the swarm you've uploaded to even if you didn't upload to them) rather on them to prove that you were'nt uploading in a protocol designed for uploading.
