So, ive never done this, ever. I know tons of people do for movies and music.

I understand why people do it for music, but do the same reasons apply for you on movies? Meaning, do you torrent so you can have it forever?

I ask because streaming movies seems to be so much simpler, and less criminal right now.

Im not a legal advocate.. just curious why anyone would download over streaming when it comes to movies?

I'm on a secure, invite-only movie site. So it's very low-risk. I get DVD or Blu-Ray quality, I get it forever, and I can put it on a hard drive and watch it easily from my PS3. It's just awesome. I push a button on my PS3 and I have hundreds of movies to choose from at perfect quality, regardless of whether I have internet at that particular place or not.

I use tehconnection.eu

It's extremely well-managed. No bad torrents, all perfect quality, infinite selection.

CottonWasKing --> If you want an invite I'll send you one if you promise to be cool about it.

I'm on Demonoid...is that considered a private tracker? B/c I had to get invited

I'll trade an invite to demonoid for one to whatever you use

I forgot about Demonoid. I was registered there but I'm sure it's gotta be lapsed now due to inactivity. So I don't need an invite. But I got 8 to spare at tehconnection if you want one. I need your email.

I'd like an invite please. I'm currently using tpb and I don't care for the lack of control and so many leechers. I've been torrenting for about 4 years or so. My email is mindkrash@att.net

I just download from icefilms. Pretty much the same thing as torrents.

As to why? Its dvd quality movies before they are released. If I'm ever bored I will just go on and watch something.

I'd love one, I've always been real scared of torrents.

GeauxingforTigers & fouldeliverer -> Invite sent. Read the rules, happy watching.

ETA: Is everyone aware that you have to maintain a ratio? You have to upload back what you've downloaded. I just want to make sure this is clear.

No idea how any of it works, but I'll read up on the rules and what not. I'll make sure I do whatever it takes to stay within the guidelines or whatever.

i've got no problems doing that, especially inside of a monitored community of torrenters
