The world is gonna be holding it's breath, I just pray that Bram doesn't incorporate shitty DRM crab into BitTorrent.

I'd be a lot more into bittorrent if there weren't so many leeching asswipes out there. As it is, BT is slower than direct download by a long shot these days, for the most part.

I agree there are a lot of leechers but I always share whatever I share at least 10x before deleating/moving/renaming it (theres a place where KTorrent will show how much you share it). Bittorrent is not ment to replace direct download but when you have something you need to get to lots of people really fast on a really slow server bittorrent is the best way.

One thing this event might do is keep the MPAA off from sueing Bram up his ass, seriously the guy has created a great technology that has a lot of legal uses, like when SUSE 10 was released, pretty much all mirrors was just hammered and then slammed, and there was so many peers on BitTorrent that it almost choked my internet pipe

If Novell handles the mirroring as dump when SUSE 10.1 is released, I'm gonna fire up Azureus and get it off BitTorrent

I'm a big SUSE fan, and I just gotta try the latest and greatest whenever it's released!

I think you nailed right on the head. Suprising, no.
