Statistics

One interesting statistic that tells about the self-perception of illegitimacy in BitTorrent for sharing movies:

Average Speed:
Do the Right Thing (Spike Lee) 10 kB/s
Pulp Fiction (Quentin Tarantino) 30 kB/s

What else can be inferred from this statistic is left as an exercise to the reader.

Before the completion of the download, Do The Right Thing was still hovering around 10kb/s where Pulp Fiction had surpassed 80kb/s in speed. The completed Pulp Fiction download had a corrupted index, indicating corruption in the media - haha!

There must be a message in here somewhere about slow and steady? I definitely enjoyed Do The Right Thing and the role of the mayor was most essential. I just don't see why nobody likes Spike Lee.

Please note, that I may be slightly biased, as I have seen Pulp Fiction at least 10 times before, so there were no surprises for me in this movie.
