Truth about hollywood...

Hollywood is ready to slam you for using BT. I got a letter recently from my ISP saying that the Motion Picture Association knows i've downloaded crap. I'd only been using BT for a week and then I got that letter. So I stopped using BT. I never had anyother problems with things such as IRC. I hate BT.

sure it is good...

BT is a great idea to be sure, however total anonymity would be a marked improvement imo.

Canada pwnz.

No record of anyone being hit in Canada. To make things better, downloading music is legal here.

I love Canada.

I like BT, I haven't gotten any warning from my ISP, and I use it regularly.

BT really is cool, what with how it makes broadband scale so nicely like TV does.

Re: Canada pwnz.

I got a email from Telus (BC DSL Provider today) letting me know that whoever owns a certain sci-fi show filed a complaint... yadda yadda, unless court ordered to do so, they will not give up my information.

I don't really care, theres been a few people getting these warnings from telus, but i'm sure they're just doing it to get the tv studios (or mpaa or whover in my case hunts down people who download mgm shows) off their backs.

I don't think they have a leg to stand on here in Canada, and we take the warnings with a grain of salt, now i just know to gran that crap of newsgroups and leave my torrenting to brand new torrents (like the night something airs somewhere), i'm guessing (since its worked for me so far) that avoids warnings because they haven't been up long enough to be infiltrated.

i love BT by the way, so much better then p2p plazes like kazaa. Forcing people to upload was bloody brilliant. People who upload more get to download faster, it gives incentives for sharing bandwidth, not like a kazaa type system where 200 people are trying to grab the smae file off 3 people with a slow dsl connection

Get a client, there are a lot of them. People seem to be partial to Bit Tornado or Azureus. I like the official one on Linux and Azureus on Windows.

Anime

Before Bittorrent it was a drag getting any type of anime. Now with Bitorrent I download anime all the time even the ones i have never even heard of. Naruto was one my first Bittorrent downloads, and boy I never thought this anime was going to be this good.

its UPLOADING that causes MPAA and RIAA notices

its UPLOADING that causes MPAA and RIAA notices not downloading, BT uploads the same content you download as you download it, so downloading automatically means you are uploading the same content. So no content can be downloaded unless uploading is completely disabled or legal as well.

and if no-one uploads no-one can download, which kills P2P all together for illegal activity

Everywhere i look people are mad RIAA and MPAA are complaining about downloads, but it's UPLAODS that they create lawsuits and notices about.

You should also try Berserk, and Gungrave, those are great animes:).

BT is the king of Anime, Naruto is really good too.

Sharingan is a cheap move though;).

Re: its UPLOADING that causes MPAA and RIAA notice

that is true, and the longer you let your upload lie the more chance to get snared.
However if they increase this letter writing pressure it will just encourage private tracker clubs where membership is introduction only. Hm, kind of like small time drug dealers in new york..

Is BT traffic encrypted. You see if it isn't "key clubs" won't help. On subpoena to one ISP and you are hooked into the whole private BT network with a sniffer.
