[BT] New Antipiracy measures?

I downloaded a TOP 100 pack from thepiratebay this morning, only to find out that every song was filled with 5 second clips of different random songs.

Nice job RIAA.

I remember the first time I downloaded a bogus song it took me a while to figure out, the chorus section was looping around for like 3 minutes and I'm going "damn this song is repetitive!"!!!!!!!!!!! I think that was from Kazaa or eMule... Nowadays I just share files between friends using GigaTribe ( »www.gigatribe.com )...Less songs to choose from since they're only from my friends/family/coworkers, but no more bogus or corrupted files.

As much as it is badmouthed in this forum, PeerGuardian
will help somewhat in weeding out fake file sources on
p2p.

Also, it helps to check the comments section on your
favorite torrent site and see what others have said
about it - and to leave choice comments yourself about
it, such as this file is fake.

A Torrent admin will get these fakes pulled off their
site before too many users run into them.

And it isn't just the RIAA. One of the MPAA's favorite
tactics is to seed fake torrents as well. Disney has
gotten caught red handed at this in the past (with
fake torrents of the movie Cars).
