ALHOLK Posted December 16, 2004 Report Share Posted December 16, 2004 Hi! A virus can by definition only exist within executeable code while a movie is a data stream. regards ALHOLK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try Bill Gates first though as they intend to distribute all their new updates worldwide via a bit torrent protocol for security reasons. but I'm willing to learn every day.

soongmak Posted December 16, 2004 Report Share Posted December 16, 2004 the headline of your post is a bit misleading, IMO. There were no arrests for people downloading through bit torrent. I guess the MPAA is happy with the way you bring the news, because it adds to the panic when there is no real need to. Actions like these are designed the scare the public away, and convictions are almost nil. Off course downloading through bit torrent is on the fringes of legality, and as such it can't hurt to keep in check what is happening in your country concerning downloads.

Didn't mean to be misleading- I just modified the original title. Not trying to create any scare tactics myself. I like to see the cat-and-mouse games that are never-ending. Especially those where the mice keep winning! Obvious that these tactics WILL work against many users without good knowledge- just look at some of the posts above dealing with virii. In case I didn't say it before: MPAA, RIAA: fuckwads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 16, 2004 Report Share Posted December 16, 2004 i went and downloaded one of the bit torrent software, and started downloading from supernova.org good news is that so far my computer is still alive, bad news is that it's awfully slow. is it that thailand is somewhere in the backwaters of internet?

Guest Posted December 16, 2004 Report Share Posted December 16, 2004 basically, i still would not mind to pay a fee to download good movies faster than with that bit torrent thing, if such a site would exist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 16, 2004 Report Share Posted December 16, 2004 understand Fly, but just let the BT run in the background, they get faster the longer they are connected, but certainly never the speeds of a dedicated d/l I'll try to hunt up some paymovie sites also maybe check any video shops you know. But I suspect most of the stuff you want is not available here. But it is the World Capital for buying pirate movies (and HK as well) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
