Is it really the worst film remake ever?
Well I'll NEVER find out at this rate if this stuuupid thing downloads any slower, I started at 8 this morning, it is nearly half 2 in the afternoon and it's only 62% loaded!

Yep it's a torrent. When I downloaded the film last night the sound didn't even work, it was completely silent. So I've downloaded another file of the same film and this one is just extremely slow.
Are there any other file types you download films with? Or are they all torrents.

I am sure Wrong Planet cannot condone any sort of illegal downloads. :wink:

When I was very young, I read the Grimm Brothers' Fairytales in their original, non-childfriendly versions. From this, I learned that if you break into the houses of bears, THEY WILL EAT YOU.

:wall: OK, so I'm running late for my first job this morning because problemfriend#1 calls to tell me she thinks the police have gotten bored with peeping in her windows and have cut the wires to her air conditioner and it's going to hit 100 degrees f today. Then my car breaks down on the way to work. I reschedule my job (that's a long story but I'll skip it), get the car in the shop and borrow my mother's spare car. Then I go to see pf#1 and see the lines to the air conditioner have clearly been chewed by her 4 dogs. I also see the window the police have been peeping into is at least 11 feet off the ground. Then problemfriend#2 calls, he is in a rest home recovering from back surgery. He wants me to come and get his bank card and take out cash to pay his overdue phone bill. So I go to pay the phone bill and all their computers are down and also the bill is $25. more than he had me withdraw money. I get a mystery call which I can't answer because I'm out of minutes because pf#1 and pf#2 keep calling me to either do favors for them or listen to their delusions. I just wanted to get this written down because if I don't I'm afraid my brain is going to start leaking out of my ears. Back to work. :evil:

Torrents just suck in general, I've quit downloading from them altogether really ever since I had issues back when I was still back with AOHell (AOL), it would just take literally 5 days just to get a film and a day sometimes just to get music, so I stopped since then.

It's also extremely easy for the copyright police to track you that way. Using HTTP downloads makes tracing everyone who downloaded a file near impossible, unless they decide to raid the site and go through IP logs on the servers, and even then the server would need to be configured to keep long term IP logs, and your IP would need to not change before the details are obtained from courts.

Long story short, streaming and download sites are a lot safer than BitTorrent.

However, BitTorrent was created by an Aspie, so don't diss it :wink:

Thank you ProfessorX for not ignoring me when I needed a kind word the most. I know my post sounded harsh but there is a lot of resentment there about people expecting me to take care of them and to hell with my needs. The car is costing me $400.00 and people would not stop calling me and I almost threw my cellphone on the floor. So thanks for taking the time.

It sounds like you spend all your time running around after people. Your time is important, especially if you need to go to work. Perhaps tell these friends you will help when you have some spare time.
