Sorry that you don't get to see the newest episode of 24 when we do, it's not your show. You get Telemundo or some damn thing, but we don't. be happy with what you have and stop crying, OR, move your ass to the US. Japan puts out a LOT of stuff that we Americans would LOVE to have, but we can't get it because........ IT'S MEANT FOR JAPANESE PEOPLE. but it's not fair right? well, you Colombian claw23 guy, the problem with your “it’s not fair” argument is that the shows and videos, and games, and anything else that are made in the US, are meant for the citizens of the US first.

" from Youtube, and that I have to wait 2 months after its release date to see 24 or transformers and even worst: wait 6 months after the release of a retail dvd in order to be able to buy it in my country. I'm a Systems Engineer and I'm a Pirate just and simply because I have to, because I don't like to wait, and because I believe that it isn't fair. And be sure, as long as we have to buy things months after it's release and pay twice the price for it, we will keep inventing new ways to go around unfairness and we will not give up.

We generally have to wait forever to get things, especially (it may sound petty) an extra week to a month for PSN content, and not to mention outrageous pricing in comparison to the US. So i'll continue in my ways of, er, buying things, and be happy! That is so true – exactly the case here in Australia.

The rest of the world however will continue to be met with 'The content you are trying to access is not licensed for the region you are currently in'. We don't have those choices available to us.

Taking their torrents out of the mix will doubtfully have much of an effect on torrent traffic or peer to peer file sharing overall.
