Blue_Skies - let me know if you want to take this further ;)
Thanks mate :)
I'll just start her off with speed.cd though. It doesn't require invite, so if she screws it up, no one else gets punished.
also I saw axxo and kingben stuff on speed.cd so it should be very easy for her to seed.
Re: Kid friendly Torrentsite
I don't even let my girlfriend download, it takes my bandwidth ;).....
If it was me, and she had to download stuff, I would go with news groups and just get NZBs from this site or other similar sites, newsgroups can get pretty bad, depending where you go, but that goes for anything with the internet.

i would have to kind of agree with this she should be concentrating on other things then being on bittorrent trackers. May be wait a few more years. I find it hard to believe that there are many 10 year olds downloading, meaning there is no real need for any trackers that are friendly towards kids at that age. Really think its the parents responibility to sort things at for kids when so young.
Could you expand on this? Are you saying that I should let a 10yo use trial and error when being introduced to the Internet. Should I just let her download Limewire or something like that and then have her spammed with porn ads when trying to find cute pictures of animals etc.?
BTW I have successfully taught her to use Google image search.
Also there is ulterior motive behind introducing her to torrents instead. She will have trouble finding Danish subs for stuff if it's an English torrent site, which will force her to pay better attention in English class in school.
I won't teach her to use subscene.

Maybe read the posts in this thread. She already found out about "Copyright infringement" as you so elegantly put it. I don't want her to get her computer infected.. and staying clear of nasties on Gnutella is something that takes a bit more effort than a 10yo can handle.
At least Torrent sites encourage sharing, which is something a 10yo should learn.
I'm not trying to be an ass here, but this just sounds ridiculous to me. If you follow these lines of thinking, then your telling me that if she discovers crack cocaine or heroin, your going to try to find a safe way for her to do it? Or discovers armed robbery can make you a lot of money, your going to facilitate it?
We may call it file sharing, but it's still illegal in most country's, & you are helping her do it, no matter what you call it. I agree with a few others here...let her mother do it. What's going to happen & god forbid, you get busted by one of the aa's? Blame it on a 10 yr old? Once again, i'm not trying to be a jerk, but this just doesn't sound right to me.
Re: Kid friendly Torrentsite
It's not illegal here so those arguments don't apply. I have a hard time associating file sharing with crack cocaine and armed robbery, but maybe that's just me.
oh and :glag:

no i see what u trying to say, but i just think its just a few years to early to start to introduce her to downloading stuff. And no im not saying let her download limewire im saying u should not let her download anything at all, the parent should do the downloading for her. Maybe im wrong but that just what i feel, and i have nothing against teaching her how to use computers and the internet, just think its a bit early for her to download thats all maybe wait a few more years.
Maybe i feel that way because i just get a bit paranoid about people who dont really no a lot about downloading, download stuff on my computer.
