Music Doesn't Feature In the Pirate Bay's Top 100 Biggest Torrents

journovampire writes Good news for the industry's anti-piracy efforts? Or rather embarrassing for music's appeal in the big, wide world? No single music release features in the Top 100 most-torrented files. From the article: "MBW has analysed TPB’s Top 100 most-pirated files in the 48 hours since its re-emergence. And although you’ll find plenty of movies and a smattering of porn in there, you won’t see a single music release. The Top 4 most-pirated files over the weekend were all movies, led by new Jason Statham vehicle Wild Card. It was followed by three more Hollywood releases – The Interview, American Sniper and Nightcrawler."

    SJW's don't eliminate discrimination. They just expropriate it for themselves.

    Youtube sound might not be audiophile-quality, but we're talking about top 100 songs, which are 100% garbage. Means no audiophile's touching any of those songs with a 10-foot pole. therefore your point is moot :)

    Ah, but only if the point could be mute...it would make top 100 listening so much more tolerable :)
