BitTorrent Blamed for Matrix2 Downloads

MartyJG writes "The BBC are running a story on how Matrix Reloaded is available via P2P. This time BitTorrent is taking the heat for the distribution - even though there's no company behind it to drag over the coals. The story speculates about the source of the copy, suggesting it's from a film or digital source rather than a cinema-screen-leech." Despite this piracy, the flick has made over $365M already. Including my tickets. Twice.

I like BitTorrent a lot, I've been using it to grab Alias episodes the last few days. I've never watched the show, but now that my TiVo is starting to look pretty empty, a co-worker convinced me to start watching Alias. So far, I like it, and there's a great BitTorrent listing here:

I haven't as much luck getting movies, they seem to take forever, but I grabbed Red Hat 9 via BitTorrent, and it was damned fast when it debuted...
