there is literally no reason to pirate movies and music anymore, thanks to cheap streaming services

Why pay when you can get it for free (and at a better quality too).

>>56643622
Because the act of torrenting itself isn't illegal, you fucking lobsterbrain. It's just another way to share files across multiple computers. I can make a torrent right now for anything I make and spread it via the protocol. I won't even appear on the radar.

Could someone explain torrenting over streaming please.

Only things I torrent (if that means download) are really specific porn movies which could easily get taken down, stuff like music is downloaded from youtube, films/shows streamed on something like putlocker and games bought from steam. I don't get what all the fuss is about if streaming still works.

>>56648867
Streaming quality is shit.

>>56648867
You basically need a constant internet connection to be able to even access your music. Quality isn't always great, meaning that not every steaming service has 320 kbps MP3s, which is something you'd expect from a music streaming you're paying for. I don't believe that every streaming service has many non commercial music though.

Torrents can't be taken down by their very design. But sure it's very annoying that tracker sites get taken down though.

All the PIRACY IS OVER articles are clickbait. Improvements in game DRM is a real problem though.

>pls make yourself reliant on us goyim

>>56643622

This,
>>56649010
also public trackers aren't really trackers, they now are used to index shit. Public torrents are tracked by DHT and extra open trackers are added bonus. When an index site like kat is taken nothing happens to existing p2p torrent swarm, most public indexes share the same swarms for content because same torrent with identical magnet hash submitted to multiple sites.

Private trackers are another matter they both index and track, private torrents are not tracked by DHT so if the private tracker is taken down the swarm is mostly dead.

>>56649010
>Improvements in game DRM is a real problem though.
Watch how they sell less(less profit growth) because of it.
My reaction to the denuvo DRM was just to do something else instead of playing their shitty games.

>>56643622
>How has torrented survived still, it's still going strong even after massive takedowns? Is it just too big to fail?
It's distributed. And anyone with even a half decent connection can set up a tracker.
Also piratebay mirrors can be set up in less than 30 min

What's the best source for audiobooks?

>>56648378
Free is still cheaper than cheap.
Streams are usually worse quality.
Streaming media can be taken away from you.

Piracy remains the superior option for the end user.

>>56649457
If the industry started selling ease of access, quality and EVERYTHING(not limited content so i have to have 10 different subscriptions to access certains music/movies) people would drop piracy so fast you wouldn't believe it, for the right price. As it is they're retarded.

The thing is it seems most torrents dont.

They have 720p, 1080p, or 4k resolution offerings, and 720p will have the most downloads. Every fucking time. They shouldn't even offer anything besides 4k unless there is no 4k version available.

streaming services are so retarded that people who work under the law manage to make a better quality of service than the legal assholes who geoblock, can't be bothered in making subtitles, shows are streamable 1 year after release in the USA, fuck them. Streaming services are only good for the US.

The demand for pirated shit is growing, fast. The fact that 10-bit HEVC can compress chinese cartoon episodes to ~100MB a piece and leave it with relatively high quality doesn't help either.

To top it all off magnet hosting websites just keep popping up left and right and everyone struggles to get in the gold rush (hosts, advertisers).

Anyway piracy isn't going anywhere and trying to enforce anti-piracy laws hasn't done jack shit to curb piracy.

>>56648378

Asssuming you live in America and get first hand access to all the good shit being released. Most of American TV that is worth watching never make it to for example European streaming services because of copyright issues. If you want the latest episode of Game of Thrones, the only way to get it within a year in places like Australia is through piracy.

Help understanding the protocol for trackerless torrents

When creating one, how do the first peer find what you a seeding?, DHT will send it to a peer block that the hash dictates ought to have that torrent file. But the actual content you want to transfer is only available to you, the original seeder, how can the new peers find you unless you put your own stable IP adress on the torrent without a public tracker?

Once you have some peers I guess PEX can be used to grow the swarm, you still need a initial group of people sharing

Most of the recent hard to crack games were HUGE sellers, though. For example, DOOM took ages to crack, and it sold millions in the interim.

You'd be surprised. x265 version 2.0+58 is pretty much 50% better compression efficiency over x264 version 0.148.2705. I did a couple of encoding tests with animu and films and the x265 encoder always gave similar quality for half the bitrate.

You can see for yourself, just replace the stock x264 and x265 encoders in meGUI with the latest ones from:

http://komisar.gin.by
https://builds.x265.eu

We also had a thread a few months back about H264 vs HEVC and OP posted files containing video files and different bitrates to compare.

they lookup the peer block the same way you do

They have to be connected to the DHT for this to work - the publisher of the clients has a central server to make it easy to make first connections

It's a fire burning in his brain 24/7. I know how jews are , they are constantly monitoring these torrents and desperately trying to get them shut down , they do the same thing with even youtube. They don't even need to do it, they have some automation and paid goyim doing it but they still do it anyway. It's just a characteristic of the jew

This is the truest truth. Prioritizing ease and getting rid of artificial scarcity and arbitrary region control? I would pay at least as much for that alone as the mid to top tier cable bundle available to me. Conversely, I perceive no value in that crap cable package as it is, so I don't subscribe to anything save for the minimum streaming services to keep my wife and kids entertained.

Tl;dr: I would pay more than I currently spend on media right now for an easy, regionless media streaming service.
