You like giving back to the community don't you?
In simple terms, when you seed, it makes other people's torrents go faster.

You should feel bad for torrenting. It's a sin.

PSSHHHHHH maybe in your god fearing eyes.
I see no point in giving the record companies/Hollywood MY money when there is only is 4 major labels and all other main stream labels fall under those four umbrellas, Same goes with movies. "The Big Five" why would i give them my money unless i really felt the movie or CD was worth the time and cost for it. I Can't even remember the last CD I bought at a store... i buy almost all my music from shows, Straight for the artists. I wish i could do the same for movies

Torrenting is pretty horrible actually. I know a band that have to sell things in order to make a living. you, taking thier music is stealing food from thier mouths.

yeah, but by the time they're known and people want to steal their music they probably have the millions to spare.

How much do they make per CD, what like 10 cents? 90% of the stuff i torrent are books and how am i stealing for their mouths if i buy their CD at their Show?

ok, let me. i think i will steal a song, but i want a particular genre so what am i going to do? i know lets looks up artists who do that genre. now how do people get known to be playing that genre? oh yeah, that's right - they're well known because they've sold albums which some record company took up and now it's real popular and now the artist is turning over a 6 if not 7 digit return. those small bands who are going around the place aren't on the internets much simply because there is like no demand. as soon as they're known and their career is going they would have sold enough to have wealth beyond cyber space.
so yes. rly.

Downloading and redistribution is torrenting and then seeding, it's a criminal offense, and it is taking money away from people who have earnt it, sally, I don't think you understand, those bands have earnt that money, you are taking it from them.
