Torrents: Good or Bad for Entertainment ?

It is quite normal to find many movies, Albums and Documentaries uploaded on various websites before their actual release. Earlier, I used to be surprised by the power of Internet and the creativity of our Tech Geeks. Now, I have realized that everything is possible and ethical in this democratic world as long as you are not caught by the law. Same thing applies, when it comes to 'Torrent' and the websites which are supporting Torrents. You can find dozen of Torrent supporting websites with a huge collection of Entertainment stuff.....You name it, Whether its movie, music album, documentary, video...Everything is available.

But.....What about our Entertainment financiers and distributors ? Are they not suffering because of Torrent supporting websites. How does it feel, when you are investing millions of dollars on any movie and you find your movie on website before its official release ?.... Yeah, I know it hurt (Both Financially and Professionally). But, still Torrent supporting websites are mushrooming with every passing day and making millions of dollars (Not always).

Although, Torrent was developed with a good intention of sharing large files/documents over Internet, but it has been used in a negative way. No doubt its fulfilling its original goal but unexpected negative outcomes also. We are the people who are using Torrent for downloading latest movies, softwares, videos, books and Albums without paying a single penny. Hence, we are also part of this crime....Even me.

Its up-to us to correct this whole game of illegal downloading because in the end every entertainment lover is going to suffer. I don't know how ? But as we know, "To every action there is always an equal and opposite reaction". Future is uncertain....its our present which we can change. So let-us change it.... "Stop Illegal Downloading".

Director of the week: Martin Scorsese

Its fun to watch drama movies with lots of action and suspense. It would be unjustified, if we are not writing about one of the greatest director of this breed "Martin Scorsese". Martin is known for the movies with their dark shades and excellent use of camera.....Not to forget the editing of the movies (You never feel tired while watching the movies of Martin). He is a genius in his own. Martin is a good screenwriter, producer, actor and a film historian apart from being director of world class movies.

Martin Scorsese was born in New York City on November 17, 1942. Scorsese has been married to Helen Morris since 1999; she is his fifth wife. In his childhood Martin was influenced greatly by movies like "The Bicycle Thief", "Paisà","Rome",and "Open City".

Martin has directed movies like:

1. Taxi Driver
2. Raging Bull
3. Goodfellas
4. Cape Fear
5. Gangs of New York
6. The Aviator
7. The Departed

All of these movies have helped Martin to establish himself as one of the great movie director of his era. Martin Frequently uses "New-York City" as the main setting/plot in his films. "Guilt" is a one of the prominent theme in many of his Movies. In year 2007 Martin won the Academy Award for the Best Director for his movie "The Departed".
