Oh, and rapidshare and megaupload aren't torrent sites. They're web storage. Two totally different creatures. Stuff gets removed from those sites all the time due to copyright violations precisely because those sites store the files as one file. Torrents allow for bits and pieces of the file to be taken from amongst the seeders, each piece is downloaded to your pc, then rebuilt into the full file. There's no one person or server to target to try and stop it. Add in PeerBlock as I mentioned earlier, and you're pretty well protected from even being targeted as a seeder.
