Ok guys lets not make the mistake of saying all "we" download are linux distros and such :laugh: That is laughable !!! 99.999999% of ALL torrents are pirated content....And I am 1 of them ,,,no denying here:toast: But all this hoopla about "linux distro's" is :roll:

Yeah so? I use torrents for Linux distros, and video sharing. I don't bathe into soap-operas, not much western music, am a doctor so the real pr0n is in the hospital, don't use PS, CS to make a living so opensource alternatives like GIMP are all I'll ever need....= no serious need for piracy at all though I admit I used pirated software, as of now, none.
