most of the sites i'm a member of offer content, that is influenced or produced by the north american or west european culture.
80% of the content is mainstream american or european cinema, music or video games.
i noticed, that many people from totally different cultures and countries die to get on that trackers.
is it because it's their only chance to watch western media, which is not broadcasted in their country?
or is it the thrill to join a community that is totally different from their own real life and the social and religious circumstances they live in?
i guess it must be a culture shock for a 16yo arabian muslim to read and see a "official want to rape chicks" thread in a tracker forum.
on the other hand there seems to be a certain fascination even in the anti-american fundamentalist cultures for western life-style and media.
why do western trackers attract so many different cultures?
