>>This is why some trackers don’t allow mainstream films
***

true...BUT more than 90% of them do if we are talking about BT DL’s. They dont care and work for over the info. You are a complete fool if u are not able to change your IP address, use Peer Guardian and update the ban lists..umm, that’s what I heard from my neighbor’s kid.

I use a ban list and also use the following, too ...

Peer exchange

Peer exchange or PEX is a way for the computers in BitTorrent file sharing networks to connect with each other. It helps to maintain the group (known as a "swarm") of users (or peers) that are collaborating to share a given file. In the original BitTorrent design the many peers (users) downloaded a ".torrent" file describing the file(s) to be shared and then depended on a central computer called a tracker to find each other and maintain the swarm. Later development of distributed hash tables (DHT) meant that sub-lists of peers could be held by other computers in the swarm and ease the load on the central tracker computer. Peer exchange allows the members of a swarm to exchange information about the swarm directly without asking (polling) a tracker computer or DHT. This is swifter and draws load off the tracker.

Peer exchange can not introduce a new peer to a swarm entirely on its own. To make initial contact with the swarm, each peer must either connect to a tracker with a list of computers using the desired ".torrent" file, or use a router computer called a bootstrap node to find a distributed hash table which also contains a list of peers in that swarm, but is not held on any one central computer. For most Bittorrent users DHT and PEX will start to work automatically when they start a torrent. A notable exception is "private torrents" which are not freely available; these will disable DHT.


Distributed hash table


Distributed hash tables (DHTs) are a class of decentralized distributed systems that provide a lookup service similar to a hash table; (key, value) pairs are stored in the DHT, and any participating node can efficiently retrieve the value associated with a given key. Responsibility for maintaining the mapping from keys to values is distributed among the nodes, in such a way that a change in the set of participants causes a minimal amount of disruption. This allows DHTs to scale to extremely large numbers of nodes and to handle continual node arrivals, departures, and failures.

DHTs form an infrastructure that can be used to build more complex services, such as distributed file systems, peer-to-peer file sharing and content distribution systems, cooperative web caching, multicast, anycast, domain name services, and instant messaging. Notable distributed networks that use DHTs include BitTorrent's distributed tracker, the Kad network, the Storm botnet, YaCy, and the Coral Content Distribution Network.
