Have you ever used a TORRENT (etc) site?
 
Anonymous poll, be honest.

And I mean "illegal" ones for mp3s, xvids, video games, software. Plus other general methods of piracy distribution. Rapidshare, kazaa, irc, ftp, whatever.

I don't want to see the results skewed by "yea I used this super rad legal torrent site for emo bands."

:thumbsup

Exactly... my wife goes to choir practice right when Smallville is on, so I download it the next day.
or if we miss Heroes...

stuff like that.

File sharing isn't automatically illegal. It's a question of what you're sharing.

D 06-05-2007 02:33 PM

A few times as a kid. Warez Boards, and the like.

But that's really about it. Where's the "reformed 0day kid" option? :1orglaugh

A lot of programs these days (Heroes, for example) can be viewed in their entirety off their respective network's website... 100% legally.

Yes, all of us sitting on the couch watching a 400 pixel wide video on my 19" monitor is pretty comfy but not all that great.

So no thanks. I'd rather download it and burn it to dvd and watch it on my tv.

Viper2K1 06-05-2007 03:00 PM

I don't use torrents ... because somehow I can't get that shit to work :)
probably my isp has some ports blocked or my router has them blocked dunno

brtfly88 06-05-2007 03:45 PM

Yes because no money to buy the original dvd...

dissipate 06-05-2007 03:47 PM

Dopy 06-05-2007 03:56 PM

Its the only way I get to watch the Sopranos latest

gideongallery 06-05-2007 04:37 PM

i hate the assumption that all torrents are illegal
i downloaded the entire fedora set using a torrents and it was 7 yimrd gsdyrt than downloading it from the mirror


as for tv shows many countries outside the US can't access the online version
and the online version are usually a much lower quality than one you can download via torrents

Spunky 06-05-2007 04:43 PM

Na..I'm paranoid I'll get some virus or some bullshit..I never bothered

tehHinjew 06-05-2007 05:23 PM

My thoughts as well.

It's only wrong when others do it and it effects your earnings. :Oh crap

Get Tivo, or if you're in Australia FoxtelIQ. Why you'd waste all that time downloading it than burning it when you could just press one button and it'd do it for you I have no idea, both are pretty cheap now days.

hzoltan 06-06-2007 02:19 AM

I use it, because dvds and cds are expensive here... and if I don't upload anything, it's not a crime :)

aico 06-06-2007 02:23 AM

Never have, don't even know how to do it.
