Not to mention some providers can detect such usage. If it's just a normal download, providers aren't going to pay much attention but if they notice the seeding part (as in uploading and downloading at the same time) then it's more likely for them to detect it.
Also, Matt, stop being a moron. For one, what exactly is the problem with the seeding process of torrents? How else do you think the internet works? Also, if your provider notices you uploading and downloading at the same time? aka, if your provider notices you doing anything on the internet? No matter what you do on the internet, you are always uploading and downloading at the same time, that's how the internet works.
And "once people start noticing them"? They have been trying to take down torrent sites for years and years and years and have failed. Because of the decentralized nature of the bittorrent protocol, you can't just take down one place, such as MU, to shut it all down.
The thing that brought down file hosting sites such as MU was their making tons and tons of money from selling premium accounts. Similar to YouTube, online service providers are not and cannot be held directly responsible for content uploaded to their service by users, as long as they respond to takedown notices. However, when you start making a business model and make money off of such a thing, that is where the problem starts. While, yes, YouTube does make ad revenue, they don't outright charge people for premium access to their site.
The main problem and what, I think, brought down MU in the end was the oodles and oodles of cash they were making mainly off of copyright infringement. Once you start explicitly charging money for the service, or for usable access to the service (because, let's face it, sites like MU were practically unusable without a premium account), then things become a lot more complicated.
The main point here is, calm down everyone. The internet is, by it's very nature, a free place and a place for people to share amongst themselves. That cannot change. This isn't the end of the world and, once people calm down a little, new methods will be made, if need be.
Only torrents work with uploading and downloading at the same time. Providers can detect such power that torrents use. Now whether you believe that or not, I don't care. That's your own problem and your own issue. I'm not going to attack you or insult you to try to force you to believe me or to even prove my point.
I know they've tried taking down torrents. Not to mention mirc download stuff too.
Eventually they will succeed. But it's not as easy for them to take torrents down because they're harder to take down but sooner or later they will since it's common knowledge that torrents provide illegal material. Some torrent sites have however gotten into legal trouble to the point that they couldn't come back.
