    People often received notice from their isps when they downloaded stuff belonging to columbia pictures, though they were not new. In one word, don't jump on to scene releases quickly especially movies and music, if you want to be safe, grab it stop seeding but it is against the idea of torrenting. The safest thing to download is porn. lol Downlaod as many you want. Noone bothers. You needed to be much worried if your location was in Canada. Try something like peerguardian though it will not protect you fully.

    In one word, newly released dvdrs (of anything) are dangerous no matter you got it from public or private.

    When downloading from public trackers, anything is dangerous!

    You got a warning?? from whom?? and it was just a warning??
    I'm at a university....if they get a letter from a studio about digital piracy, they disable your internet and forward the warning. Luckily, I just change my MAC address and my internet is back on again

    Oh, and I was downloading the Office if anyone was wondering

    haha.....I'm relatively safe. The university dynamically assigns IPs and they don't map them to physical outlets. The only way that they can keep track of computers is through the MAC address. When the University gets warnings, they disable internet for specific mac address and try to fool you into entering your university e-mail so that they can forward the warning. When my internet got disabled, I just changed my mac address and they never figured out who i was

    Hah, too bad my university didn't have that oversight. But yes, NBC Universal are really on top of their game in tracking down downloaders of TV shows and movies .... from first hand experience.
