We need writers! |

Hey guys, we need writers for the BitTorrent news going around on all the different trackers because to be frank I'm not that good at it (I will make an attempt though). To apply to be a writer you must:
1) Have a serious interest in writing in writing articles at least one a week.
2) Write good (not short), interesting, relevant stuff.
3) Pm me an article, if it's good I will post it up and it will appear on the new home page thingy.
If I see some nice and serious writers I will try to get you your own user class (no promises) so that you can post yourself but you will need to show serious commitment. Only pm me to submit an article.

EA Downplays Spore DRM rootkit |

According to our most recent statistics, it would be fair estimation to say that probably close to 1 million copies have been downloaded on BitTorrent now.
EA has downplayed this, naturally. In comments to video game developer site Gamasutra, EA’s Mariam Sughayer said “Stepping aside from the whole issue of DRM, people need to recognize that every BitTorrent download doesn’t represent a successful copy of a game, let alone a lost sale. We’ve talked to people that made several unsuccessful attempts to download the game and ended up with incomplete, slow, buggy or unusable code. In one case, a file identified as Spore contained a virus. To say that every download represents a successful copy of the game –- or that there’s been more than 500K copies downloaded — that’s just not true.”
Of course, it should be pointed out that when TorrentInvites computed the download figures previously, the basis was only a few torrents, all known to be working and virus free, and similarly with figure earlier. TorrentInvites is not new at this, and we know how to tell the difference between an incomplete, a virused, buggy, or even encrypted with a password, and one that would work if downloaded. To attempt to spin it otherwise is rude and condescending, and shows how hard EA is attempting to salvage the reputation of itself, and Spore.
When we suggested a few weeks ago that the DRM was the cause of the high rate of downloads, we said it only hurt legitimate purchasers (and those that steal it) and we are not alone. A class action lawsuit was... [Read More]
