BitTorrent based distribution services under fire
MPAA to serve lawsuits on BitTorrent servers | The Register
The title is a bit misleading. These aren’t BitTorrent servers but websites hosting Torrents to illegal (copyrighted) material. It is good news that the MPAA is differentiating the technology used from the content. In some strange twisted way I think that this will be a boost for independent media bittorrent distribution as the popular content just won’t be available. Perhaps people might even open their eyes.
Jay has it going on…!
