Demonoid Tracker Is Back Online

Crymson4 writes "We discussed the shutdown of the Demonoid torrent tracker last fall. For those who don't already know, Demonoid is back up. Looks like they found a new host for the Web site and the tracker is functioning properly as well. For those with old accounts, all the old data has been saved. It's almost as if they never left."

They're elitist snobs, I was happy to see them go, and I'm displeased to see them back. Information wants to be free.

This is the "every pirated copy is a lost sale" theory. Which has been completly debunked. Quite simply the vast majority of the people involved are not "potential customers" in the first place.It's also very possible that the "pirate" version, which tends to be "Available worldwide and DRM free", will be the only version available to people. Possibly for months/years even forever.

Actually, that theory is true. I use my linux server running 20 separate bittorrent configurations to pirate. Each one downloads two movies per day (for speed, they seed to each other, and each download two movies per day. By the end of the day, I have $20 per movie * 20 copies * 2 movies = $800 per day. I put the movies on a dvd at the end of the day (20 copies of the same thing have very good compression) and put it under my pillow. The piracy fairy brings me my $800 of disposable income straight from the pockets of the producers and actors and the movie industry.
