BitTorrent

I fully admit it – I watch for good Torrent files to download. There are plenty of legal torrent trackers out there, just waiting to be discovered by music and movie fanatics. With the recent elimination of SuprNova, several download fanatics have been forced to look elsewhere for their file fix. BitTorrent may not be easy to set up, but that doesn't mean that BitTorrent can't be easy to use. IMHO, the only BitTorrent client worth trying is Azureus. It was a dream come true when I came across a live Moxy Fruvous show last night on the etree tracker – 42 tracks, all new to me! They're in the Shorten audio format, though (so use ShnAmp). Man, I love BitTorrent. Thank you, Bram Cohen. If you've never tried a torrent, now would be a great time to start. Discover and download something new today – but don't be a Pisco Bandito.
BitTorrent is nothing more than a digital cassette tape for users. A legal bootleg is exactly how I discovered one of my favorite bands, FWIW. Sharing isn't bad, so long as it's being done responsibly. If you DON'T even give us that inch, we'll be much more inclined to take a mile. Torrent killers are killing nobody but themselves. NeoWin just posted this:

This evening, Suprnova administrator Sloncek made an announcement that the Suprnova team and an un-known partner have created a p2p based bit-torrent distribution system called eXeem. Sloncek said that the company backing the project would remain anonymous for the present time. The announcement was made on Novastream, a radio station loosely affiliated to Suprnova.
In other news, bit-torrent hub LokiTorrent has announced that it will not bow to MPAA / Legal pressure to close. The MPAA launched a series of legal actions against 'Jon Doe' defendants running bit-torrent hubs before Christmas. The theory goes that in shutting down the centres of piracy (the hubs) it cuts out the ability for users to easily access pirated material. Although clear statistics are not known, the furore and size of donations made to LokiTorrent would suggest that removing the hubs has done serious damage to piracy. [More]

And the band played on…
