Music Piracy Documentary Released As Torrent 142
goodbye_kitty writes "The producers of a new documentary film analyzing global music piracy have decided to 'put their money where their mouth is' by releasing the film as a free Xvid download (hosted by the Pirate Bay, as one would expect). The film explores the blurred line between 'fair use' and piracy, and includes interviews with DJ Danger Mouse (creator of the now infamous 'grey album'), Lawrence Lessig (founder of Creative Commons), the lads from the Pirate Bay, and even some guy from the MPAA. Here is a link to the torrent."

Oh, and the reason you may be able to download fine is because they're only doing this Traffic shaping in certain areas (most), and there are a few areas I know of where they don't seem to have control just yet. And no, there's no magic port-trickery you can do to get around their traffic shaping.
So does anyone know an HTTP or FTP source for this movie?

It's at least partially funded by Denmark's national broadcasting corporation. It was produced and aired here more than three months ago, so part of the salaries are paid by the Danish television license fee payers (not including myself).
They ask [goodcopybadcopy.net] for donations though.

Technically TPB doesn't host movies, which is why they are still around.
