Recently the two broadcasters took a new step in the right direction by releasing their work on Bit Torrent, DRM-free. First of was the Swedish pc-magazine called Allt om PC. Their latest issue is now available on The Pirate Bay, link to the torrent. Last week No Starch Press released the joyful news that their quite famous books Cult of Mac and Cult of iPod was now available on The Pirate Bay. The company wrote on their site about their decision to release the two books on The Pirate bay as an experiment. The want the see if this decision has any positive affect on their book sales. “In today’s electronic world we can choose to fight a losing battle with DRM, or we can take a counter-intuitive approach and turn things on their head.” Read the rest of the entry here.

Personally I think it’s a great decision made by both broadcasters. Hopefully we will se more books and magazines being released on Bit Torrent, totally DRM-Free. And hopefully this will have a positive affect on their sales.

Another tip. The creators of South Park Matt Stone and Trey Parker recentlycame up with a legal alternative to Allsp. Along with Comedy Central they’ve expaned South Park Studios, where viewers can stream any episode from the show’s twelve seasons. After testing out this new service I can confirm that the quality is very good, better then Allsp, and the best benefit it’s completely legal.
