not necessarily. although proxies will work they're usually slow i find, i don't use paid ones.
every time they block a site it's up and available on a different http address. you just need to find the new place. |

You can use proxy sites to get around your isp's filter
Torrents and file sharing in general have been dying for years now
Think pirate bay is the only major tracker left |

depends on the site i suppose. i'm mostly using sites to watch films, they tend to be replaced quickly.
for music i can nick whatever, nobody blocks that stuff anyway. |

If you use a mobile phone to browse and also use free wifi hotspots then add a free vpn - opera vpn is free, and easy to setup.
You can also use it with a laptop. |

yes they keep blocking sites but does nothing i still use all the blocked sites through tor or proxys, so it is pointless blocking the sites.
they can try and block it but i wont stop, with plusnet which is bt, havent had any messages yet but i would still continue on, if they sent a letter, cut me off and i will move to another,
even would get my seedbox back up and running if they get fussy i used to share over 3tb every week of torrents, prices are even cheaper now than then. cheaper than paying to see one film. |

not sure if i need a seedbox as i dont torrent huge amounts tho i may need a vpn as we'll probably end up with with virgin theyre fastest and i know they'll try and stop me |

Make sure you do it in off peak tines as otherwise rhe isp sill get pissy and throttle.
Better yet though use newsgroups/usenet faster and safer and no uploading or sharing |

There were some changes in the industry a couple of years ago, all aimed at combating illegal downloading and many ISP's now block sites that offer such a service, and this includes many torrent sites.
The alternative would have been for ISP's to share information on their customers internet activity |

the music and film industry is after the torrent network for themselves.
so they can supply films and games at profit to themselves theyve been trying to close it down for years.
it was the torrenters that proved the network was a success the film and music industry wouldnt get involved with the network. |

The industry prefers simple streaming there isnt really any interest in using torrent protocals.
And if they where there is no "torrent network" they need to control they're all individual.
Plus no one is goinf to pay a subscription to something like netflix to be uaed as a free server |
