No different than a TGP, and YES I do know the difference. I am playing devils advocate and asking a few questions it seems none of you even consider.

You just getting scared that porn is being traded in ways you never thought was coming.

In 2002 when I heard about torrents and read up on them, none of you were on here crying about them. I watched bands trade their own music, and no 5-6 years later - you guys realize too many blowjob vids are being shared and now want to go after them?

Im just taking part in this very important debate, not taking a side.

I dont care if any of you get arrested tomorrow and I surely dont *care* about torrentspy or its owner. But the fact is, torrent site operators are not providing the content, and users are.

To go after them is no different than going after any site that shows user content. Except the fact is, they dont even provide the content.

So its not like going after youtube....

(i can feel my profits go down as i sit here and waste time in this thread)
So you want everyone to believe that these big torrent owners are oblivious to the fact that 90%+ of the torrents on their site are for stolen/illegal material? Shouldn't it be the responsibilty of the torrent owner to police their site to make sure that people arn't using it to upload/share stolen content?

You say that porn is being traded in a new way...porn isn't like baseball cards...when you buy a membership to a paysite it doesn't give you the right to rip the content and start sharing it with your buddies and the rest of the world. We arn't talking about 15-30 second teaser clips or trailers that are being "traded", it's full videos, complete content sets....
