Posted: 10/29/03 - 15:29 Post subject: Hi! I'm Bram Cohen, the author of Bit Torrent.
|
|

I make a living from donations by BitTorrent users. This is my full time job.
If you use BitTorrent and would like to help support it please make a donation.
I managed to get a grant for developing BitTorrent in 2001, unfortunately the grant was only for $1000 and I've long since spent it on Linux products.
Most BitTorrent users use my tool to essentially steal mp3s, games, videos, movies, and other misc. software. You're not paying for those, but I'd like you to pay for mine.
Please donate!

because bit torrent must have taken millions of dollars to develop...
this guy should have patented it, waited for someone else to make it, and then sue his ass for millions
