NFO's

[CPC464]

does anybody actually read them, and sidetracking from dunsons comment in another thread is it really worth getting to power user for the privilidge of doing so before downloading the torrent.

i know they contain information about the torrent and also usually info about the scene group who have released the torrent. so i understand why the are included with scene releases.

but why do some trackers insist on including a nfo in user uploads which arn't necessarily scene releases. It just becomes a bit of a pain having to create a NFO before uploading a file. i have only ever read one to obtain password/ install instructions for software.

I only ever read PC Apps NFOs, and even then only after I have downloaded it!

I read them most of the times! Especially when I am about to download a game, or a pack to check the versions of the files in it!

I only read the nfos of propers for the funny comments.

I don't need to know how many files or the aspect ratio or anything.

Yeah I read them, for the details of the movie/tv show. For example, I once saw a DVD5 with like 7 audio tracks. I was like WTF, no thanks.
