- zephyr42, on 03/22/2008, -2/+104No one on Digg downloads illegal material.... ever
- austinnowlin, on 03/22/2008, -8/+80YouTorrent FTW
- Ganja420, on 03/22/2008, -1/+72Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me.
- cerealjynx, on 03/22/2008, -4/+50I wish people wouldn't digg you down. This is how I make torrenting morally acceptable to myself; download all the ***** you could ever want, pay for the ***** you actually need.
The only exception (for me) is movies, but that's only because they've all been crap lately. - SpookyApplePie, on 03/22/2008, -12/+47THE PIRATE BAY FTW!!!!!!!!
- ThePirateParty, on 03/22/2008, -9/+42Mininova ftw
- skidpro, on 03/22/2008, -7/+37The pirate bay for me but i use Minova too
- Yarns87, on 03/22/2008, -9/+38Of course they are becoming more popular. Why pay for something when it is available for free?
- DontGiveADamn, on 03/22/2008, -5/+32I am a customer. I once bought a CD.
- inactive, on 03/22/2008, -4/+29Awesome news ...concluison ...DON'T try to kill a HYDRA !
- Ellipsys, on 03/22/2008, -3/+24The classical music scene isn't wounded by this. This stuff has endured for hundreds of years without labels, so somehow I think it can be thought of as "good".
- kazamx, on 03/22/2008, -1/+17no they don't. Honestly, there are thousands and thousands of people all over the world in little bands playing in pubs and clubs either just for experience or for beer money. If kurt Kobain never hit the big time with Nirvana do you honestly think he would have said ***** it, i'm gonna work in McDonalds? no he would have been one of those guys in a small band doing his thing.
Today he may have been found on MySpace and started selling smaller venues out nationwide, people would have heard his tunes and more would have come. Music sales are just Promo material, the money for all artists is in the shows. - crazlunatic, on 03/22/2008, -4/+19You know what the RIAA and copyright companies don't realize, is that the more people they sue, the more people hear about ThePirateBay, and the more people that will know they can go on this so called torrent site and download stuff! Way to go, free advertising for the pirate world
- inactive, on 03/22/2008, -1/+15... I miss demonoid :'(. I refuse to unbookmark it.
- threemagic, on 03/22/2008, -3/+17How do you explain the explosion in cd sales during Napster's heyday?
- yoshman, on 03/22/2008, -0/+14Forgetting the caps lock key are we
- Peck3277, on 03/22/2008, -1/+15I rewrote what I was going to write here about 4 times. Theres so much to call you, but i'll settle for idiot
- Zera, on 03/22/2008, -0/+14Yep, that's the Metallica effect. Metallica did more for music sharing than anything else, because they got it in the news frequently month after month, and that is powerful PR.
- jeriqo, on 03/22/2008, -15/+28Yep, just like music... and it's going to get worse and worse...
Only teenagers buy music nowadays, thus people only make music for teenagers.
The more you download illegally, the more music/movies are becoming *****.
And please stop with the "music wants to be free" *****.. nothing is free.
These days are really sad for the music industry... and don't blame the majors, this is too easy... they worked very well before napster.
People must admit you cannot get quality stuff for free. - pyroguy56011, on 03/22/2008, -1/+11Public trackers are great sheer volume and all, but private trackers ftw. OiNK was king, but Waffles and What have both taken its place quite nicely.
- TypeEE, on 03/22/2008, -2/+12This is because soccer moms are beginning to use torrents.
- inactive, on 03/22/2008, -2/+11Piracy is when you make a profit from it.
Stealing is when you deprive someone else of the goods you've taken.
What we do is file share. - Jerky1312, on 03/23/2008, -0/+9Good idea, because every now and then, it shows vital signs. I think latest sign of life was in Ukraine.
- Ganja420, on 03/22/2008, -6/+15and
Why support an industry that sues its own customers? - zaii7, on 03/22/2008, -9/+17CAN'T STOP WONT STOP
DAMN IM WATCHING TO CATCH A PREDATOR
WHY ARE THE PERVS ALWAYS SENDING PICS OF THEIR GENITALS - yotomote, on 03/22/2008, -3/+11The cat is out of the bag. The genie is out of the bottle. The milk is spilt. The train has left the station. Elvis has left the building. The movie has been torrented.
- scrag10, on 03/22/2008, -0/+8I download movies in hopes that Tom Cruise won't get paid and stops making films.
- carpespasm, on 03/22/2008, -0/+8she's already sang and her discography has been around since the days of napster.
- laserblazer, on 03/22/2008, -4/+12Y'har, these RIAA sea-slugs be the bane of every free-booter on the high seas of ye ol' Internet! I'd take it sweetly to rip the futtock shroud and belabor with me cutlass any scurvy bilge-rat that tries to sunder me from the sweet image files that are the birthright of those who follow the sweet trade!
- poseitom, on 03/22/2008, -0/+8OMG (!?) hello ... yeah you garryconn... welcome to the new millennium.
things are going to be different from now on (as they should be) live with it ! - logandurand, on 03/22/2008, -0/+7It's not so much the cost for me as it is the fact that I end up getting a better experience with downloaded, DRM free content.
- facelesscoward, on 03/23/2008, -0/+6Oh snap, and here I was thinking that there's tons of good music coming out. Just look around a little. It's not hard to find.
- TheIguana, on 03/22/2008, -1/+7To bad my ISP (Shaw) thinks bittorrent is a pain in the ass and simply blocks or throttles it depending on their mood at the time.
- Ellipsys, on 03/22/2008, -1/+7Dug up for sheer piratude.
- zephyr42, on 03/23/2008, -2/+8I have paid tons of money for PC games over the years... a LOT of money and have refused to download any game. And how do they repay me?? they freaking killing PC gaming market, and it's not because of pirates
- richman241, on 03/22/2008, -7/+13dugg for the cool t-shirt
- inactive, on 03/22/2008, -1/+7What's funny is that if they hadn't come down on Napster so hard, we'd still be sharing single songs like that. Now we can download an entire discography from 400 seeds and 250 peers, getting gigs of music in less time than it takes to listen to it.
It's a beautiful thing. - zephyr42, on 03/22/2008, -3/+9I'm still a huge isohunt fan
- inactive, on 03/22/2008, -0/+6I added it to my Firefox toolbar up top and I use that more than anything.
- wondertwins, on 03/22/2008, -1/+7Y say a specific torrent and type in FTW? All torrents are FTW!
- RadiatedAnt, on 03/22/2008, -0/+6Koolaid man says "ohhh yeahhh!"
- Frost9999, on 03/22/2008, -1/+6But it's not over until the fat lady sings.
- DarkLance, on 03/22/2008, -0/+5yeah, you collar it and make it your bitch.... lost the race with napster... now your baby is all grown up and resentful
- nightmare1228, on 03/23/2008, -0/+5Trial software? Lol.
- iamafatguy, on 03/23/2008, -0/+5http://digg.com/tech_news/Demonoid_Tracker_Moves_t ...
posted 6 days ago. - AltairLaAhad, on 03/23/2008, -0/+5Trial software is simply a way to find out if the product is good enough to pirate.
- newdigger, on 03/22/2008, -0/+5On which planet are you living? Torrents have been GROWING for awhile now, hence this article. And on what public trackers do you need to keep a healthy ratio? Please, indulge me. You sir, are alone in you're beliefs, fyi.
- McgooglyWoogly, on 03/22/2008, -1/+5torrents FTW... but srsly, what's with the same torrentfreak tshirt image attached to every article from said site?
- akh4x0r, on 03/23/2008, -0/+4Private Trackers FTW!
