Mainstream Media on Torrents

A "torrents" is a website that allows users to download (or "hack") another computer's hard drive. These torrents (or "Linux" as they are often called in the underground hacking community) can then illegally copy MP3s of any movies you have in your house. These copies are then sold on underground "warez" sites such as iTunes for illegal profit. Unfortunately for many Americans, such copying is always traced back to the original source, leading to persecution and jail time for whomever owned the movie in the first place. The only way to stop this menace is to turn on "DRM" (which stands for "Download Restriction Mechanism") in your Windows; readers are encouraged to call their congressperson and demand that legislation be written to prevent us from this. 9/11.

Needless to say, Floor9 won the thread even though this was the fourth post on it.

By the way, a massive WOOT to Pirate's Bay for taking on the DoS'ers.
