Forums are the biggest source of piracy online.. They feed, seed, everything - from newsgroups, torrents, tubes, etc... Forums rip paysites, entire member areas, zero minute ripped as the sites update - every site that's worth a crap, every bit of content they have.
Piracy tubes don't download all our shit every day from all the hell over, that's crazy. They pull it from single sources, forums. Which is why same scenes get re-pirated, over and over - it was simply scrapped again.
That's just the really private/group forums (and every group, has a forum).. they actually feed user forums, based on request/demand. Some of these forums are so large, they can crash gallery boxes that can normally take the load of all the traffic sources of our industry, but not a single Piracy forum.
Piracy is what I started in, it's what has made me the most money, about 90% of all the money I've made is through Piracy traffic. I know which sources were big and dried up and I know what's hot today.. And today it's still the best way to build lists on the Internet...
