Back in the day, and probably even now, as I used to encounter them when I lived in the big city, cam copies were famous on the streets. It was the only way to get a bootleg copy while the movie was still in theatres but you didn’t want to go for whatever reason.
When I lived in the big city, in a not so great area, the guys used to be in the grocery store parking lot or barbers or smoke shops selling the DVDs and before that were selling VHS copies.
And then when LimeWire grew in popularity, people would upload those like they would any retail DVD. And then went on to torrents as those grew in popularity.
And it still continues today for similar reasons. People want the fame that comes with uploading the first copy online or the first decent quality.
You can though it’s a bit of a roundabout way of doing it.
P2P releases typically come from private trackers, so you’re having them go from private trackers --> usenet --> public/private torrents
Scene releases that leak to the public typically hit private trackers/usenet around the same time, so you’re having those go scene --> private trackers/usenet --> public/private torrents
In others words anything you’re seeing in usenet has already been uploaded to at least some private trackers & possibly public torrents.
Of course with public torrents anything goes, unfortunately with the demise of RARBG public torrent users are only seeing a fraction of scene/p2p releases. 1337x/TorrentGalaxy does cover some of this but they aren’t covering nearly as much as the RARBG uploaders used to. So IMO if you’re seeing a scene/p2p release that hasn’t already been uploaded at 1337x/TorrentGalaxy then sure go ahead & create the torrent from your usenet download.
Internet Archive is not Library Genesis, the two organizations have very different functions and should be structured very differently.
Internet Archive is for preserving data, not necessarily distributing it as widely as possible. If distributing the data puts the preservation of that data at risk then don't distribute it, keep it stashed safely away. Maybe a decade or two from now things will change and they'll have the only copies, and keeping them snugly away out of sight will have been vital to preserving them after that point. Internet Archive has a public corporate presence that makes it easy to donate to and easy to run their servers, but also makes them easy to sue. So avoid doing anything that gets you sued.
Library Genesis, on the other hand, is piracy central. Their mandate is distributing this stuff and sticking their thumbs in the eyes of the publishers. So they're structured entirely differently. They run on the shady side of the internet, making them hard to donate to but also hard to sue. They should be the ones "fighting the fight" right now. It would be sad if they got taken down but not an irrecoverable tragedy, a new Library Genesis can rise again.
Internet Archive are being idiots by poking the bear like they have been lately, it's like they're carrying a precious irreplaceable baby and they've decided to take a run through a minefield. I hope they learn from this debacle.
The unpack process is usually single threaded, and a stock 5820k is slower than a ryzen 1600 in that case, so you’re probably just running out of CPU performance. My server runs a 6700k and it’s pretty slow to unpack even with nvme arrays
The screenshots probably shouldn’t include copyrighted movies though, so it doesn’t get taken down from GitHub. You can replace them with Blender Studio projects studio.blender.org/films/
(Also there’s a small typo it says steam instead of stream on GitHub)
