Nice play on words lol

i read em most of the times, too. they are informative, sometimes funny (eg.: Wanted.TS.XviD-TRADINGSTANDARDS)

[DV8type]

of course they are useful

They contain great INFORMATION and should be added to all rls. Especially proper, appz, DVD nfos. They are even useful to see if it is a good movie or not since most contain links to imdb....plus some of the war nfo's are fun....especially those that are rlsd by the infamous MM

CANAL STREET - THE TRUTH, now who hasn't read them MOFOs NFOs

[Ghostbusters]

I only ever read them before downloading when faced with the choice of the same release from 2 different groups or individuals.

I usually read them after downloading whilst the rar's are extracting

[KaySterling]

No... well, that would be sometimes on new games that have special steps but other than that i couldn't care less about the NFO's.

[Axoric]

i just read the NFOs to see the procedure of applying crack.

[F.B.I]

Useless, at least for me.

NFO files exist since 2 decades ago and they were popularized by newsgroups which shared binaries. NFO are essentially the same as README.TXT which you must read before using any warez. I always read them before downloading the stuff and I think they must be in torrent description as well, I don't understand why some sites restrict NFO to pu+ only. NFO should be along with the contents of the torrent too.
