said by SilentMan : It is also amusing to note that verifying that a user actually has a file is nearly impossible- its hard to distinguish between a client sending you the real file and a client sending you nonsense. Also, what about fakes, and files that dont exist in complete format anywhere? I've come across releases of movies where everyone has 99 percent of the file, but no one has the final 1% and the file might as well be random bits.
Here's another thought. The whole point of ripping a song from a CD into MP3 format is to discard data on the fringes of human hearing and compress the whole thing into a smaller ball. How is that an exact copy of a copyrighted work? |
