Content Producers / Programs - A serious question

[RawAlex]

HP - you are missing the point.

Joe Surfer, an average guy who doesn't really know much about the internet. However, my friend Bob Surfguy told me about this hotty called Savannah on cumfiesta that takes a huge load of goo, and she looks like the girl in the next office. Well, so , Joe goes to google, and types in cumfiesta savannah.

http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&sa...G=Search&meta=

4 out of the top 10 searches go to torrent sites. Now Joe might click any one of those 10 looking for the content. There is a 40% chance that this is the day that Joe learns how easy it is to download a torrent file. At that point, Joe is no longer a potential porn client, he is down a guy with utorrent on his computer downloading pr0n like all the other cool people.

Worse chance he tries one of those direct download sites, which use porn sites like megadownload pass to charge $5 to start and $35 a month after plus cross sales a couple more things (thanks platinumbucks!), so not only does the guy learn about torrents, but he gets his credit card fucked over too. Classic.

If Nastydollars (just this example, not picking on them) were to DMCA google on a regular basis to get rid of those torrent listings, more traffic would flow to them, and they would make more money. It isn't about stopping experienced downloaders, they won't pay for porn anymore anyway. It's about not corrupting SE traffic and turning them into freeloaders.

ok, i see your point.

i'm not sure dmca applies, i've never tried one on that angle since again they aren't really hosting anything with a copyright. but it would be nice to see google punish those results a bit.

i still dont think that's a huge impact to the market because torrents and usenet are not that easy to figure out for the average joe on the street. even if you are wise enough to google for how to's all of the file conversions, codecs, etc will scare off non-geeks.

and imo opinion if a true geek doesn't wanna pay for your stuff, he wont, and he will obtain it for free if he so desires.
