Tirelessly, the MPAA continues to target torrenters who are sharing their films. Realistically, we can’t blame them for wanting to protect the digital rights of their precious copyrighted content. But the bigger issue stems from the direct "leaks" from Academy members, some of whom are more than happy to provide release groups with inside movies that just shouldn’t exist (yet) at the P2P level. There are more DVDSCRs than ever before; and Russian R5s, CAMs & Telesyncs have taken a backseat to high quality, Academy "only" DVD and VHS screeners that are being released (leaked) well before scheduled theatrical dates. Below is a list of films that are available on P2P; most of which can’t be found in theatres.
