MPAA And Bittorrent Seal Deal

It will take a while for the download market to work out, but it's too good not to work out.

Here’s the deal. People use Bittorrent to download both legal and illegal software. The thing is, Bittorrent, developed by Bram Cohen, is mainly used by pirates all around the world. Hell, I even use it to download software and movies from TorrentSpy, Piratebay, and Mininova. No one can stop the people from using it to download illegal stuff. On the upside, there are also legitimate software available in Bittorrent. Like the stuff from Fileshack. So their solution, Bram and the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America) has made a deal to take down illegal downloads from the Bittorrent Search engine. This may minimize piracy but I’m almost sure that they can never put a stop to it. If it were up to me, if I really wanted to abolish piracy, I would directly ban Bittorrent. I know it’s a big price to pay, but how far are you all willing to go to stop illegal downloads?
