I am American but I live in Thailand now and for those Americans stuck back home maybe you don't realize that pretty much the whole planet downloads torrents daily with never considering for one second that the police are going to be knocking on their door and I see now when ask some torrents questions here on YA that either get no answers or I get all of the Hush,hush people answering me.Jez,if the Thai police were to arrest people for having copies then 90% of Thai people would be in jail including the police themselves and all the dvd shops would shut down and it's not just Thailand.Outside of a few western countries it is a global thing to do.I hear that the American people can even have a problem with YA if they talk about it on here.What happened to free speach?

I don't really understand your point. You can't compare Thailand, China or, pretty much, anywhere in Asia with the possible exception of Japan to the west. In China, I couldn't even access the songs that I had actually paiid for on iTunes nor could I download anything else because US iTunes was blocked and my credit card and computer were linked to it. I didn't even know where to go to buy legit movies but there were stands all around selling the latest dvd's for 5 RMB. The situations are completely different so you shouldn't try to compare them. It's not about free speech, it's about copyright infringement. There are several sites that people can go to to watch movies and tv shows that don't require downloading of any kind - they can simply stream them.
