    Hey All
    I think it will be preety good, if we have torrent files, so everyone can load and keep seeding, due to the restrictions of file-sharing systems,
    this will prevent this kind of problems.

    i agree,i prefer torrents actually,filesonic and its stooges are criminal sites no matter what people say,since they make money selling accounts to download big files,they re good just for downloading small size files that don t require to buy an account.
    what they do is not file sharing,this is a term that can be used properly only for torrents or for the old good emule

    Most Guys who Upload files and share links, do that because they make cash. they can not make money with torrent. So no Motivation for 95% of people to share torrent links.
    That is the Problem.

    I would prefer lets releases with torrents - we would also get rid of these money-hungry members who never really understood what "try before buy" stands for!

    There should never have been any money involved in this in the first place!

    Torrents are trackable. Get used to it!

    The thing is, when sceneers cracked and leaked software, they are doing it for free, and if it is try before buy, no one should force existing members to load from bunch of shits sharing systems, where they are asking for enter captcha and waiting and bloody slow speed. Using torrent, will get rid of headache,

    It;s just copy and paste of LINKS and that's it.

    Torrents are way much better for big files , no need to download part 1, part 2, part 3 ... part 10000 separately to get what you're looking for .
    People should try to make torrents but most of the time they know how to download a torrent but not how to upload

    Crumpy is right. People are selfish, they just want to grab stuff and not spend their bandwidth seeding, torrents would die fast. You need to build a good site with good infrastructure to keep the torrents alive with ratios to keep people motivated in seeding. This is definitely not a quick solution. Anyway, I'm happy to see filehosters go away, making money out of other peoples hard work!

    The file sharing model which injected money into "sharing" took away from the core concept, it also increased piracy and is the reason for things like SOPA and PIPA. Due to wider availability of free intellectual property people are becoming less choosy and succumbing to consumerism. This resulted in a feedback loop, increased piracy, increase dependency, more sites, more severe actions taken by authorities and so on.

    Sharing works perfect in the private-torrent model where the uploaders are users just like downloaders. No money in this model and none is needed, it will be hard to "try before you buy" (or "extended trial" :p) but knowing right people and following the rules can give you sufficient access to shared material.

    PAT and AN for example. For me, I only download something if I absolutely need it, and my first preference is to look at a tracker to see if what I want is available there. The uploaders have been getting greedier and greedier lately and they deserve this blackout. Bigger files were intentionally uploaded so the users are forced to pay. File size is increased with lousy compression, recovery records and conversion of FLAC/MP3 audio to WAV. None of this crap is possible in the strict private tracker model, and the uploader would prefer to keep the size low to save bandwidth.

    Did someone to not realize that the torrents are prohibited in many countries?
    People can not take files from torrents for many reasons.
    Why create such topics? How many more?
