How is paying more to said megacorp going to reduce their influence?

Hell the last few months it has been very noticable.

I haven’t seen any ads? Am I missing something?

Good point… Do both!

Can’t argue with that, was just trying to point out why people were reacting negatively is all.

I apologize for douchenozzling up the thread. I actually appreciate the explanation as it was informative, but it is pedantic to focus on that instead of answering the original question.

Just saying, nobody loves a pedant.

I’d bite if it came with a lifetime guarantee against failure, accidental included. Buds are just too fragile for this kind of price.

There is some startup lag with that site. The whole VIP/freeleach/wedge system is a bit convoluted, but grabbing some popular free torrents and keeping them seeded will get you going in no time. It is easily the best community I’ve seen on a torrent site and those restrictions are probably a big reason why.
