What's the bet this backfires? Eventually there'll be restrictions on the type of torrents it can host.

I doubt it, what kind of restrictions?

Most people don't torrent anymore anyway. They just stream new releases illegally. So much easier and your ISP has a more difficult time finding out about it.

Lots of people still use torrents...lots. I don't know what "most people" means? You have some kind of study on this?

I'm sure are there lots of people who still torrent. Just saying it's out of trend and it's risky. I've gotten two messages from my ISPs over the years telling me to stop torrenting shit and none from streaming. Plus with cheaper and more readily available broadband Internet, streaming HD is so much easier.

Do you still torrent?

Actually, most people encode new releases bit by bit in one pixel per frame in youtube videos. Special decoding software views 5,000,000 videos decoding each bit per frame and reconstituting the original 5 minute movie trailer.

Shit. We're restricted from any online connections with NK and I use TPB a lot. :(

Why would you doubt it? They already heavily censor their internet, don't they?

I only torrent. I didn't even know there was another way (other than shareazza type peer-to-peer).

Derp.

Usenet - pirating before it was cool
IRC - pirating like a boss
Torrent - pirating like a dood
P2P - pirating like it's 1999
Carrier Pigeon - pirating like it's 1492

There's probably better streaming sites. Haven't done it in a while.

Figured you meant sites that stream free video/music. Not really pirating and definitely not new.
