Film makers to use Bit Torrent sites

Now film makers attempt to use Bit Torrents as a way to get their films out there and in the process get some much needed publicity which can in effect make an average film into a cult film that has been seen by millions.

In fact a film producer from Norway found that one of his films had leaked onto the a few Bit Torrent sites, but instead of getting annoyed about it, he believes that it is a bit of an honour to have someone think so highly of his film, that it just had to be out there.

The only problem that Harald Zwart had with the film being posted online was the actual quality of the recording, he believed that it had been recorded by video in a cinema, which means the lighting and sound is not going to be of the highest quality. But with thousands of people viewing it nobody is complaining!
