I love my torrents. I'll admit, 99% of what I torrent is copyrighted material that I do NOT own the rights to. However, I can easily justify this...

What I torrent is mostly music. I don't just use this music for "trials" and then delete it. I do keep it on my harddrive, but if I like the music enough, I will go out and buy the CD for it. Case in point? Yesterday, I purchased Clutch's "Blast Tyrant" and today bought their "From Beale Street to Oblivion" album that I originally torrented last night.

Like it has been proven, those that download music are much more likely to actually purchase music in a store. Damn us "thieves".

Oh, and Demonoid was only shut down because their host is a pussy company that couldn't stand the heat from the CRIA. Fucking wimps.

Also, remember 10/23. RIP OiNK.

Edit: Goztow, you say that "helping" people do something illegal is also illegal, right? Only if their intention is to help people to do things illegally. If a shop owner sells a guy a gun and the guy murders someone, the gun shop owner is NOT an accessory. Nor are torrent sites that allow people to download music illegally. The premise of a torrent site isn't necessarily to illegally download copyrighted content. Sure, we can all agree that most sites are well aware that their trackers are used to illegally download music, but that is a moot point. It's not the purpose of the tracker, so they are not an accessory.

whoa.
