These are strange times indeed. While they continue to command so much attention in the mainstream media, the 'battles' between old and new modes of distribution, between the pirate and the institution of copyright, seem to many of us already lost and won. We know who the victors are. Why then say any more?

    The interesting part is the focus on the finger pointing at the magnet (which points at the torrent) Basically, citizens are not allowed to point at things.

    The web is full of "$name (1970)" and there are also lots of torrents with those keywords. some will have "1080p" some "BluRay" some "X264" etc etc

    In stead of sharing the magnet you can share "$name.1970.1080p.x264" and the recipient can pretty much find what you are talking about like "Steal This Film II.720p.mov"

    Wait a bit for persecution to "mature" then evolve the format to use keywords like "wonderful","amazing","great","funny","western","horror",etc possibly in specific order to save ink while ignoring "it's","and","thats",etc

    The adventure is more interesting than the recordings.
