The solution? DRM.

DRM would cost an arm and a leg! And like I said....they can upload shit all day long for all I care. They are STILL in my rearview mirror. Some surfer uploading shit to a torrent still has to outwork me. And that shit ain't gonna happen. No matter how much they try...a torrent is still just a big bunch of slow downloadable OLD content that is possibly infected with viruses.
But don't listen to me. Just go ahead and take off with the rest to the "mainstream" I'll just stay behind and "tough it out".
In my opinion the very thing that makes torrents so infuriating is also their main weakness. They don't have the ability to CREATE anything. So they have to WAIT until AFTER we actually make something for them to steal. And then they can only present it in a way that is completely out of context.
I know there are some people who like to live in a dump, and drive a moped, and eat cheap food. Those are the same people who like to download a movie from a torrent site. They are also the people who will never buy anything anyway. I call them "losers"
As far as I'm concerned 99.99% of the current membership of GFY needs to stop pretending to be in this biz anyway. Just because a person signed up for an affiliate program doesn't mean they are in the porn biz anyway.
They should follow the original poster on over to "mainstream". OR, go back to their jobs flipping hamburgers at McDonalds.
The real webmasters will continue to do just fine. It's called creativity and originality. Two things you never find on a scripted website OR a torrent.
And you can agree with me or not. I don't give a fuck. My bank account says you are wrong. My sales say you are wrong. My knowledge of entertainment says you are wrong.
Bit torrent sites? They can have all the shit traffic in the world. I'd rather have 1 GOOD surfer than 1,000,000 hits of torrent bullshit traffic.
The only number that counts is the one on your bank statement.
